Environmental Protection filters air before releasing it. --- Types of Biosafety Cabinets 1. Class I Protects personnel & environment, but not the sample. 2. Class II Protects personnel, sample & environment (most common). Used in microbiology, pharma, research labs. 3. Class III Maximum protection, completely sealed & glove-based (used for highly infectious agents). --- Main Parts HEPA Filters (inlet & exhaust). Front Sash/Glass Window (for working access). Work Chamber (sterile workspace). Blower/Fan System (controls airflow). UV Lamp (for sterilization when not in use). Fluorescent Lamp (for illumination).
