It really depends on the organism. If you're working with
a mycobacterium or dangerous fungi then most work is
performed under a ventilated hood. The microbiologist will
wear a disposable respirator, gloves, and a gown (or PPE -
Personal Protective Equipment). I'm a student in a fairly
large microbiology lab and for the most part people just
clean their benches at the beginning of every shift and
wash their hands periodically throughout. Most people here
unless they're working directly with a specimen don't even
wear gloves, but everyone wears their PPE. Pants and close-
toed close-heeled shoes are mandatory. It's a good idea to
cover up any cuts you have. When in doubt just keep gloves
on at all times and wash your hands each time you change
them.
