The Need for Decontamination

Biological safety cabinets should be decontaminated under the following conditions:

1. Accessing the contaminated plenum, to change the filters, blowers, etc.
2. Relocation of the cabinet from one room / building to another
3. When the type of micro-organisms is drastically changed
