Laminar Flow Hoods

In applications requiring a clean air environment, laminar flow hoods are essential.

PCR is a process used to replicate DNA. It is important to prevent contamination during PCR as this can easily affect the process. Using a vertical laminar flow hood is a suitable way to prevent contamination.

Laminar flow hoods are important in lab environments working with delicate biological samples that benefit from the clean air workspace.

In settings and applications where a clean environment is essential, laminar flow hoods (LFHs) are a vital tool. Use of a LFH ensures a contamination-free workspace by generating a continuous flow of clean air to remove airborne particles.

The design of a laminar flow hood is critical to the quality of its performance and how it works. To optimize the performance, various design features must be considered and tested.

The acronym HEPA stands for high efficiency particulate air, and these filters boast an exceptional ability to achieve a high standard of particle filtration.

High efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters are designed to efficiently remove airborne particles and contaminants, making them indispensable tools in laboratories and cleanroom facilities.

Ultraviolet (UV) sterilization is a disinfecting technique that uses UV light to kill or damage microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi.

The cleanliness of air within a laminar flow hood is typically stated in terms of its classification according to ISO Standards.

Laminar flow is a concept in fluid dynamics which describes the smooth and orderly movement of a fluid (liquid or gas). In laminar flow, fluid particles move in predictable, parallel layers with minimal mixing between layers.
