A fume hood is a ventilated enclosure laboratory that is designed to contain and remove potentially hazardous gases, vapors, or fumes to protect the user and surrounding environment from exposure.
Freeze drying is a process of removing moisture from a product while it is frozen by sublimation, the change of water from a solid to a gas without going through a liquid phase. This process is commonly used in the pharmaceutical, biotech, and food industries.
A biosafety cabinet is a laboratory cabinet designed to provide protection to the user, the environment and the product from aerosols generated during procedures within the cabinet. This type of cabinet is commonly used in microbiological and biomedicine research.
A fume hood is designed to protect users from hazardous chemicals, while a biosafety cabinet is designed to protect users, the environment and the product from biological hazards (e.g. bacteria, viruses) during experiments.
Labconco equipment is commonly used in pharmaceutical, biotech, food, government, healthcare, and academic research industries.
