Biosafety machine

  • What is a BSC machine?

    Biological Safety Cabinets (BSCs) are among the most common and effective primary containment devices used in laboratories to protect individuals from splashes and aerosols when working with biological agents..

  • What is biosafety equipment?

    Biosafety equipment consists of both the materials and personal protective equipment that keeps laboratory personnel safe.
    Biosafety cabinets are a very important component of laboratory equipment that allows laboratory workers to safely handle infectious agent or toxins..

  • Personal protective equipment for biosafety labs can be categorized as follows: BSL-1: lab coats, gloves, and eye protection should be worn as needed.
    BSL-2: lab coats, gloves, eye protection, and face shields.
    BSL-3: lab coats, gloves, eye protection, face shields, and possibly respirators.
A biosafety cabinet (BSC) is a primary containment device used with biological material. While handling biological agents, it is the biological equivalent of using hazardous chemicals inside a fume hood. Like a chemical fume hood, a biosafety cabinet protects the user from hazardous material using directional air flow.
A biosafety cabinet provides three layers of protection: Personnel — Air curtain and HEPA filters protect users from biohazardous aerosols generated inside the chamber. Sample Protection — Recirculating and unidirectional HEPA filtered air protect samples from contamination from unsterile lab air.

What features are available on Thermo Scientific biological safety cabinets?

Features available on Thermo Scientific biological safety cabinets include:

  • SmartFlow dual-motor design automates airflow compensation and balance Digital Airflow Verification (DAVe) alerts user to excessive flow restriction Night Set-Back mode reduces airflow to 30% when window is closed .

    • What is biosafety innovation?

    Needles, centrifuges, glass instruments, and other tools can all pose unique hazards to laboratory workers.
    Over time, the design of this equipment has changed to improve safety and reduce risks.
    Biosafety innovation is an ongoing process of hazard identification and design changes to address new or newly recognized risks.
