The Benefits of Using a Balance Enclosure
Crucial to the operation of laboratories are the safe and effective weighing of potent powder compounds, active pharmaceutical ingredients and nanomaterials. Workers handling these toxic compounds must always follow industry standards and best practices. When it comes to laboratory venting options, usually fume hoods come to the forefront, because they provide a safe ventilated environment […]

The Evidence Refrigerator for Cold Storage
After field collection, evidence does not always go directly to the processing bench for analysis. Oftentimes, the evidence must be stored until time allows for processing. Storage units become essential during this stage of the chain of custody. Preserving and maintaining evidence collected at a crime scene is crucial. Preserving and maintaining evidence that must be […]
Fire Suppression in a Ductless Fume Hood: An Added Layer of Protection
While ductless fume hoods are good at controlling the risk of fume inhalation, those same contaminants that a ductless fume hood is protecting the operator, environment and equipment from, can also contribute to the risk of a fire. Fume hoods should not only protect the users from potential chemical contamination, but should also have built-in […]
