Biosafety Cabinet is a laboratory facility in the form of cabinet used to handle samples that may affect human health, pathogen and biohazard samples. The use of the Biosafety Cabinet aims to protect humans and the environment from sample contamination and protect samples from cross contamination. The protection provided by the biosafety cabinet was created by the airflow system. The airflow systems are inflow and downflow. The inflow air protects humans as BSC operators and the environment by shielding the open sash. While the downflow air flow protects the sample from cross-contamination with a laminar flow of sterile air. In addition, BSC also protects the environment by filtering exhaust air using a HEPA Filter.

Air Flow System of BSC Class II B2 PRIME |
100% of the air entering the Biosafety Cabinet Class II B2 airflow system (both through the open sash and also through the downflow supply) will be exhausted into the environment after being filtered by the HEPA Filter, or in other words no air is recirculated to become downflow. |
