The natural characteristics of biological agents by themselves allow their potential use for hostile purposes or in armed conflict and it would be impossible to foresee all possible dissemination methods of these entities. The Biological Weapons Convention (BWC) is intended to prohibit the development, production, stockpiling and acquisition or transfer of biological and toxin weapons.

With this objective, a system for inventory and retained control of biological material that demonstrates compliance with the regulations established in the country to ensure confidence in the handling of biological material, equipment and technologies and satisfy the requirements of the CAB, while also ensuring the processes of research, production and technical-services which in this center are developed.
