Class I Biosafety Cabinet

A Class I Biosafety Cabinet is a specialized workspace used in laboratories to handle potentially dangerous biological materials. It provides protection for the user and the environment by drawing air into the cabinet and filtering it through high-efficiency filters before releasing it outside. However, it offers only limited protection for the samples inside. It's mainly used for tasks like cleaning or discarding waste, where the primary concern is preventing hazardous aerosols from escaping into the surroundings while ensuring user safety and environmental protection.
