UV light and Biosafety Cabinets

Potential UV Hazard Hazard: Ultraviolet light (UV-C) Recommendation: Switch off UV while working “UV-C does not penetrate skin, but is absorbed by organic materials… therefore used as germicidal …” in biological safety hoods. UV-C Maximum Exposure Limit: < 1 minute (100 uW/cm2) Source: <www.case.edu/ehs/Training/UV/UVSafety.pdf> Source: (http://www.uvm.edu/safety/lab/hazards-of-ultraviolet-light)

Biological Safety Cabinets: UV-C For biological sterility, either UV light OR blower fan should always be ON

Biological Safety Cabinets Blower fan will not turn on unless hood is open ~3 cm

Biological Safety Cabinets Recommendation: Switch off UV while working Switch on fan to preserve sterility Fan UV
