Microbiological safety cabinets (msc), class I,
class II or class III, biological safety cabinets, biohazard cabinets, flow
hoods, tissue culture cabinets, fume cupboards, fumecupboards what's the
difference between them? When should one use a class I instead of a fume
cupboard
and what's the difference between all these different standards we're heard
about, (BS) en12469, BS5726,
BS7258,and NSF49?
These are everyday questions we are asked (the sensible ones at least--you wouldn't believe the silly ones, like; will my cabinet work without turning it on? or, Is it OK to remove the front screen whist working)? MSCS (now joined with Safety Cabinet Solutions Ltd) will endeavour to enlighten those interested in doing it right, as sadly more often than not people are given incorrect and often unsafe advice and information ---- not us, browse our site and feel free to contact us should you require any further information or more information on our range of product solutions for your particular science. MSC - (BS) EN12469 definition: ventilated enclosure intended to offer protection to the user and the environment from the aerosols arising from the handling of potentially hazardous and hazardous micro-organisms with air discharged to the atmosphere being filtered.
