Dear Ms. Morland,
I am requesting unfixed human anatomical specimens from the State Anatomy Board.
These specimens will be packaged, transported, and handled in accordance with
the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29CFR1910.1030), and the University of
Maryland, Baltimore Policy Concerning Prevention and Management of Student and
Employee Infection with Bloodborne Pathogens. All University employees and students
who will handle these specimens will do so under the University of Maryland Baltimore
Bloodborne Pathogens Exposure Control Plan, have had the required annual training,
have either been vaccinated or formally declined vaccination for hepatitis B,
and will follow the practice of universal precautions. I have filled out and
submitted the online the UMB research registration form to the Institutional
Biosafety Committee using this form.
Sincerely,
<signature block>
