EPS Biological safety cabinets (BSCs) are among the most effective primary containment devices used in laboratories working with infectious agents. They act as primary barriers to prevent the escape of biological aerosols into the laboratory environment. This is important because most laboratory techniques (e.g.; centrifuging, pipetting, vortexing, sonicating) produce inadvertent aerosols that can be readily inhaled by the laboratory worker.HEPA Filters

High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters are present in all classes of BSCs. A HEPA filter removes only particulates (including microorganisms), not vapors or gases, from the air. Depending on its quality, a HEPA filter is able to trap up to 99.97% of particles with dimensions equal to or greater than 0.3 micron.
