Description
Air Science® Purair® PCR-24-A Laminar Flow Cabinet — creates a contaminant-free interior for PCR applications and protects against cross-contamination. The cabinet employs the Air Science Multiplex HEPA Filtration technology to create a safe, energy-efficient environment with vertical laminar downflow. PCR workstations are intended for non-hazardous applications where user protection is not required, providing sterile conditions for DNA/RNA workflows. An integrated germicidal UV lamp creates light-emission conditions known to provide safe decontamination between PCR cycles.
Air Science® fume hoods are designed to be installed almost anywhere without added installation costs. They are easy to operate, economical, and environmentally friendly. Laminar flow hoods are primarily used to protect work or equipment on the work surface from particulate contamination. The word laminar means non-turbulent or taking place along a constant streamline. Laminar flow hoods achieve this through either horizontal or vertical airflow. This unidirectional air stream moves at a controlled speed that eliminates airflow swirls or turbulence that could create uncontrolled results.
Key Features
- Provides particulate protection for items on the work surface
- Ideal for non-hazardous applications
- Optional UV lamp provides safe decontamination
