Biological Waste Pick-ups Now in BioRAFT

Dear CRC Researchers,

Effective immediately, all biological waste pick-up requests will be processed directly in BU’s research compliance system, BioRAFT.  Going forward you will use the same method to request biological waste pick-ups that you are currently using for hazardous waste pick-up requests.

Six new waste profile streams have been created in BioRAFT for the various biological waste items and assigned to your laboratory profiles. The table below summarizes what each waste stream profile request is intended for. Please use the corresponding waste stream profile when requesting a biological waste pick up.
