Work a load inside a Class II biosafety cabinet
Reinforce the BMBL / CDC cabinet order. Materials are not opened until sash height, purge, inward airflow, and a clean-to-dirty layout are set, and grilles stay clear.
- Don the required PPE.
- Confirm the cabinet is within certification date.
- Set the sash at the marked certified height.
- Turn UV off and the blower on.
- Allow the taught purge time before loading.
- Verify inward airflow by the SOP tissue or gauge check.
- Wipe the work surface with the approved disinfectant.
- Load materials from clean to dirty.
- Do not block the front or rear grilles.
- Perform the work, keeping contaminated items downstream.
- Decontaminate surfaces after work.
- Remove waste in the taught order.
- Purge again before shutting the sash.
