Class II Biosafety Cabinets Have Flexible Modular Design

Posted on 10 Feb 2011
Class II style clean air and biocontainment enclosures, designed for high-volume robotic and automated equipment applications, have a flexible modular design.

BioPROtect enclosures are designed for aseptic product preparation and biologic investigation involving agents of low to moderate risk. The BioPROtect III may be exhausted back into the laboratory or connected to an in-house exhaust system.

The BioPROtect III (BPIII) and BioPROtect Jr (BPJr) air containment units accommodate high-throughput robotic systems (including ancillary devices), ultracentrifuges, flow cytometers, aerosol generators, and other large laboratory equipment. Both models are ideal for high-throughput screening, combinatorial chemistry, immunology, tissue culture, clinical research, drug discovery, molecular biology, and quality control assays.

While offering clean air and biocontainment, the BioPROtect III model allows total access to the 4.64 m3 interior work area with combination double doors. BioPROtect III Jr. has a single door access with a 2.2 m3 interior volume.

The Baker Company (Sanford, ME, USA) is offering the Class II biosafety cabinets BPIII/BPJr. The air inflow rate is 30 m/minute; recirculated/exhausted air: 70%/30%; and internal dimensions 259 cm (or 124.4 cm) x 92.7 cm x 193 cm.

The cabinets' high-performance airflow system provides optimum protection against airborne particulates and aerosols for personnel, product, and the environment. HEPA-filtered, particulate-free airflow throughout the work area provides an aseptic environment and minimizes cross-contamination.

The modular construction of the enclosures allows disassembly for shipping, delivery, and placement; cabinet design simplifies assembly and installation prior to certification.
