Preparation of microbiological samples in a laminar chamber. A laminar flow cabinet or tissue culture hood is a partially enclosed bench work surface designed to prevent contamination of biological samples, semiconductor wafer, or any particle-sensitive materials.
A biosafety cabinet (BSC)—also called a biological safety cabinet or microbiological safety cabinet—is an enclosed, ventilated laboratory workspace for safely working with materials contaminated with (or potentially contaminated with) pathogens requiring a defined biosafety level.
Essential features of a biosafety level 4 (BSL-4) laboratory [1]. A biosafety level (BSL), or pathogen/protection level, is a set of biocontainment precautions required to isolate dangerous biological agents in an enclosed laboratory facility.
Instrument Uses Instrument sterilizers: Used to sterilize instruments in absence of an autoclave Dressing drums: storage of gowns, cotton, linen, etc.
Instrument Uses Autoclave: used for sterilization of glass ware and media Auto-destruct syringes: specimen collection Bijou bottle: a cylindrical small glass bottle with a screw cap used as a culture medium holder

One use of the concept of biocontainment is related to laboratory biosafety and pertains to microbiology laboratories in which the physical containment of pathogenic organisms or agents (bacteria, viruses, and toxins) is required, usually by isolation in environmentally and biologically secure cabinets or rooms, to prevent accidental infection ...
