Health safety in hospitals is essential for spaces specifically designed for the manipulation of biological or chemical agents in an environment where it is necessary to control the indoor environment, to carry out product studies or manipulate formulas for the preparation of medicines. Extraction booths and benches are specialized systems that remove contaminants from the air in specific areas where biologically hazardous materials are handled. These devices use controlled ventilation to capture and filter infectious particles, preventing them from dispersing into the environment.
Both the Extraction Booths and Benches are equipped with HEPA filters that capture 99.97% of particles down to 0.3 microns, including bacteria and viruses. They use fans to create a unidirectional air flow, capturing contaminants and directing them toward the filters, preventing dispersion into the environment.
Extraction Cabinets: Also known as biological safety cabinets, they are closed structures that provide a safe space for the handling of hazardous materials. Extraction cabins have physical barriers, such as glass panels, that prevent infectious agents from escaping. These cabins are equipped with HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filters and controlled air flow to ensure the containment of biological agents.
Extraction Benches: These are workstations with integrated extraction systems, designed to remove contaminants directly from the work surface. These stations are typically open at the front, allowing easy access for the user while maintaining a safe environment through air barriers and filtration.
These equipment are mainly used in:
Microbiology and virology laboratories, where they handle infectious samples that require strict containment.
In operating rooms where procedures generate aerosols, such as certain types of surgeries and dental treatments.
Isolation and intensive care areas, for patients with highly contagious diseases.
Hospital pharmacies, during the preparation of biologically active and sterile medications.
