Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- What is the primary difference between a Class II Type A2 and other biosafety cabinets?
- The Class II Type A2 is the most common type, suitable for handling low to moderate risk agents. It recirculates approximately 70% of the air through a HEPA filter back into the work zone, while exhausting the remaining 30% to the lab environment.
- Is the Nuaire NU-425-200 suitable for handling chemotherapy drugs?
- No. While a Class II, Type A2 provides personnel protection, handling volatile toxic chemicals or radionuclides (like chemotherapy agents) requires a Class II, Type B cabinet that ducts 100% of the exhaust air out of the building.
