The regulations that mandate regulated waste disposal are drafted and enforced at the state and local levels, however, OSHA has designed guidelines for the disposal process that protect the community, and they should be emulated when possible.

When disposing of regulated waste, separate it into 6 different categories:

Isolation Waste

Any waste that has potentially been contaminated with a highly communicable disease. This waste is found anywhere where a patient (human or animal) has been isolated to protect others from contracting their disease.

Cultures and Stocks of Infectious Agents

Waste originating from research or clinical laboratory procedures involving communicable infectious agents. It is also called microbiological waste.

Human Blood and Blood Products

Blood (including blood byproducts such as serum and plasma), any bodily fluids that are visually contaminated with blood, or fluids where it is difficult or impossible to differentiate between bodily fluids and blood.

Pathological Waste

Human anatomical wastes, body parts, tissues, or organs.

Contaminated Sharps

Items that induce subdermal inoculation of infectious agents and can easily penetrate skin or puncture waste bags and cardboard boxes. When these materials have been used in medical, research, or industrial laboratories on humans or animals.

Contaminated Animal Carcasses, Body Parts, and Bedding

Materials from animals who have been intentionally exposed to pathogens in research, in vivo pharmaceuticals testing, or biologicals production.
