Hello,
-- Have a look at this guideline from NIH (http://osp.od.nih.gov/sites/default/files/NIH_Guidelines.html). I believe any organism that is listed as "exempt" is considered safe for general lab use by the NIH (section C). Neurospora is also considered safe based on this (http://www.fgsc.net/neurosporaprotocols/How%20to%20certify%20that%20Neurospora%20final%20.pdf) and that it is part of a food in some Asian countries (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oncom).

It describes microbes that are safe for grade school classroom use, for example:Anyone know of a more modern, updated resource like this?Jason
