Protect product and personnel with biosafety cabinets

Lab Safety Advisor, March 3, 2008

Class II biosafety cabinets are designed to protect the product as well as the personnel. The cabinet protects the test being performed with a downward high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) airflow and the personnel with an inward laminar air airflow. The exhaust is HEPA-filtered before entering the atmosphere. Class II biosafety cabinets are approved for BSL-2 and BSL-3 use.
