Will this HEPA filter work for a flowhood? It says 95% effective, but this isn't HEPA then is it?

It would not be worth using that filter. It would just blow air that potentially still has our enemies. I would use a glove box until you can get a good HEPA filter for a hood.

Nope, 95% won't work. You need 99.99%.

95% effective won't help you in mycology.

it will still allow small microns of contams to pass through the filter.

FYI 95% means 5% contams now put that under a continuous flow and you'll be exposing your cultures to ALOT contams from a mycological view. GL
