What is a laminar airflow cabinet?

A laminar airflow cabinet is a closed cabinet fitted with HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filter airflow system. The air flows with a steady, uniform velocity of 0.3 m/s to 0.5 m/s. The inwards flow of air through one or more HEPA filters creates a particulate-free environment for carrying out specialised work. The instrument protects the product from contaminants.

  2. WHAT IS A LAMINAR AIRFLOW CABINET? IGENE LABSERVE A laminar airflow cabinet is a closed cabinet fitted with HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filter airflow system. The air flows with a steady, uniform velocity of 0.3 m/s to 0.5 m/s. The inwards flow of air through one or more HEPA filters creates a particulate-free environment for carrying out specialised work. The instrument protects the product from contaminants.

  3. TISSUE CULTURE For bio-scientists, tissue culture is an integral part of cell study in a multicellular organism. Tissues are manipulated and analysed in a well-defined atmosphere. The contamination-free environment makes it ideal for cultures to be tested and analysed.

  4. FOOD PROCESSING Useful in the packaging of small-scale food, laminar airflow cabinets are used in packaging and processing by food formulation and testing labs.

  5. Pharmaceutical production Before a drug enters the market, enormous research is undertaken by scientists to develop it. For the process of formulating the drug, scientists need to take help from the laminar airflow benches where they do sample study and carry out experiments.

  6. MEDICAL EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURE IGENE LABSERVE When medical equipment is manufactured it is important to maintain sterility for ensuring that the equipment is free from contamination. Laminar airflow is used during the manufacturing process.

  7. ASSEMBLING ELECTRONIC PARTS IGENE LABSERVE The delicate microchip is extremely sensitive to atmospheric contamination. A laminar airflow provides the right resistance from any form of contagion. These chips are tested and assembled in the laminar airflow cabinet.

  8. PROTECTION TO MOVIE LENSES Dust that easily attaches to lenses creates marks on the film when in use and can spoil the film quality. Modern movie projections are assembled in laminar airflow technology to keep dust away from modern movie projections.
