Fume hood as a flow hood,
    #19059834 - 10/30/13 08:19 PM (10 years, 3 months ago)

I have complete access to what I think is a fume hood, or a flow hood. My question is, Can I use a fume hood to get a sterilized working environment? or do I need a flow hood exactly. This hood is professional grade and has been used about once in the pass 5 years so yeah.
It looks like the one in this video


Anyway, I have all this lab equipment to myself, Pretty sure there is is a flow hood around here somewhere.

That thing is going to suck contams right over your work(not such a good thing).

A Laminar Flow Hood blows sterile air over your work, not letting contams anywhere near it(much better).

Get a flow hood.

In other words....no. You would have better luck turning off the blower and using it as an sab.

This thread has been closed.

Reason:
Off topic in advanced mycology.  Fume hoods are not flow hoods nor are they a substitute or replacement for them.
