Last week ended with a technical experts meeting in Madrid, the training of Moroccan end-users of the mobile biological laboratory objective of the DIM-LAB “Deployable CB analytical laboratory. Application of nano- bio technology” that brings together two NATO partner countries, Morocco and Tunisia, and a member country, Spain.

The project, led by the company Adelfas, funded by the NATO Science for Peace and Security Programme which aims to promote dialogue and practical cooperation between allied and partner countries through scientific research, technological innovation and the exchange of knowledge and experience.

Over the last few months, the Visavet center of the Complutense University of Madrid has carried out the validation of a biosafety level 3 mobile laboratory (BSL3), equipment and techniques for the detection of biological agents, giving over the last few weeks a practical and theoretical training for end-users.

The final technical experts meeting has been held, on the one hand, to verify that the mobile biological laboratory developed by Adelfas complies with the specifications defined by the partners and, on the other hand, to share experiences on detection procedures, biological identification and good practices of the containment laboratories.
