Is it really important to have a clean room... if you're using a glovebox or still air box?
    #20979024 - 12/15/14 11:00 AM (9 years, 5 months ago)

I mean, do I need to have the room I'll be working in be spic-n-span?
Bleach the walls and whatnot? Or just regularly clean and draft free?

Thanks.
Sorry if this has been covered before.

For glove box work, yes. For a still air box, or SAB, the principles involved are different, and all you need is a draft free space, and good technique.

Change your search query to SAB instead of glove box and you'll get what you need to know. :thumbup:

Glove boxes(with attached gloves) usually end up behaving like a lung when you move around, sucking outside air into the box. I suggest against glove boxes in general, still air boxes are superior. I do suggest wearing tyvek sleeves while doing SAB work though, or nitrile/latex gloves. Gloves definitely, but sleeves are optional.

Jeez, I'm such a newb.
What's the difference between a glovebox and a still air box, again? :sad: Is it this?

Thanks for all the advice.
If the above quote is true, I've been using a still air box.

A glovebox is a plastic bag with attached gloves you blow up and clean the air inside no?

A Still air box is simply a plastic tote with 2 hand sized holes drilled in the side. Some people attach gloves and all kinds of wierd things to them.

I just got 2 holes and the lid, the holes i cut out from it i've taped over the hand entrances to try and keep most air out when not using it.
i like to keep my few agar plates and lc in there, then i just flip them over when i need to use it, and the tape keeps the flaps firm against the plastic :shrug:

no serious contams this way so far. i try to keep it as simple as i feel possible
