About Laminar Air Flow:
Laminar air flow (LAF) is a critical technology in pharmaceutical microbiology laboratories, ensuring a controlled environment for sensitive experiments. It involves the movement of air in a uniform, unidirectional manner, minimizing the risk of contamination from airborne particles. LAF systems are widely used in pharmaceutical microbiology to protect cultures, experiments, and personnel from contamination.
PROCEDURE:
Cleaning of laminar air flow:
Clean the U.V lights, tube light and manometer with clean dry lint free cloth.
Clean the working table, top and side glass with 70%Isopropyl Alcohol.
