According to CDC recommendations, thermocyclers or PCR machines should be operated in a PCR laminar flow hood.(1) PCR laminar flow hoods or workstations help prevent cross-contamination that adversely affects samples. While PCR hoods protect the sample from contamination, they are intended for use with non-hazardous applications where biological or biohazard byproducts are not generated, and user protection is not required.
(1) The CDC recommends conducting work in an unventilated, still-air PCR hood (biocontainment cabinet) to minimize cross-contamination in sensitive PCR applications.
Air Science® Purair PCR workstation enclosures provide a safe, energy-efficient, contamination-free environment during PCR amplification. The Purair PCR workstation is designed to provide flexible access to thermocyclers on the work surface. The unvented unit uses Air Science Multiplex™ HEPA filtration technology which consists of a pre-filter and HEPA filter.
Air Science Purair PCR workstations are designed for versatility. They can be installed directly on the desktop or on the optional mobile cart and are available in three models with various options.
