Biosafety cabinets (BSCs) are a critical engineering control for protecting personnel, products, and the environment when working with special pathogens. In this NETEC webinar, participants will receive a practical introduction to biosafety cabinets and their role in healthcare and laboratory safety.
The session will cover the different classes and types of biosafety cabinets, how BSCs differ from chemical fume hoods and laminar flow clean benches, and how laminar airflow and HEPA filtration help reduce exposure risks. Participants will also learn basic best practices for working safely and effectively in a biosafety cabinet, including setup and workflow considerations that support containment.
This webinar is intended for healthcare workers, laboratorians, safety professionals, and facility personnel involved in the handling of high-consequence infectious diseases.
