Laminar airflow hood (A ventilated laboratory enclosure designed to prevent airborne biological contamination of laboratory specimens contained within, and personnel handling the specimen, by creating a barrier with a forced flow of uniform-velocity and parallel-direction air. It is typically a plastic/metallic cabinet-like structure with an open front for product handling and a sash to regulate the opening. Air is typically drawn from the environment into the system by negative pressure created by a line-powered blower; air particles and liquid droplets are removed usually using high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters. Contaminated air is usually exhausted to the outside; also known as an LAF bench.)
