Can Class II Biological Safety Cabinet designs be improved to reduce laboratory-associated infections?

Class II Biological Safety Cabinets (BSCs) are the primary containment device protecting workers in BSL2, BSL3 and BSL4 laboratories. BSCs rely on High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters and negative pressure to entrap aerosolised pathogens and limiting the risk of laboratory workers being exposed. This paper examines the performance of Class II BSCs in seeking to limit laboratory associated infections (LAIs). We also examine modifications to Class II BSCs which could reduce the risks of LAIs.

Introduction of ISO16890 filter testing standard in Australia – Why should the health industry care?

Australian Standard AS 1324.1 & 2 (2003) outlines the current method for testing filters for use in general ventilation and air-conditioning. This standard was itself generally adopted from the European Standard EN 779 (1993) which has been withdrawn in Europe and replaced with ISO 16890 Parts 1-4 in 2016.  The ISO 16890 series is now
