How to clean the surface of biosafety cabinet

Biosafety cabinet is a box-type air purification negative pressure safety device that can prevent the aerosol escape of some dangerous or unknown biological particles in the process of experimental operation. It is widely used in scientific research, teaching, clinical testing and production in microbiology, biomedicine, genetic engineering, biological products and other fields. It is the most basic safety protection equipment in the first-level protective barrier of laboratory biosafety.

The biosafety cabinet is designed to protect the operator, the laboratory environment and the laboratory materials from exposure to infectious aerosols and spills that may be generated during the operation of infectious laboratory materials such as primary cultures, strains of bacteria and diagnostic specimens.

Since the statistics of operation time will directly affect the judgment of maintenance needs, we suggest that a detailed record of operation time should be prepared for reference and inquiry when using the equipment!
