Class II Biological Safety Cabinets (BSCs), when properly maintained in conjunction with proper microbiological research techniques, provide an effective containment system for safe manipulation of low to moderate risk microorganisms. Class II BSCs provide personnel, environmental and product protection by drawing ambient air into the front access opening and flushing the work zone with vertical laminar airflow. This creates a dynamic air barrier, which effectively separates the products within the work zone from the personnel conducting the research. Dive into these tips and more in this fresh infographic to help educate you on HEPA filters.
