Radioisotope Fume Hoods
What Makes Radioisotope Fume Hoods Different?
A fume hood is designed to create a safe working environment for technicians while handling potentially dangerous substances. Using controlled airflow, these cabinets prevent airborne contaminants from escaping into the room, either venting them safely outside or filtering them out of the air.
A radioisotope fume hood must go a step further. In addition to airflow and filtration, these cabinets must be built with lead lining or other radiation-shielding materials to prevent radioactive materials from affecting those in the surrounding area. They also typically feature stainless steel interiors to make decontamination and cleanup easier and more effective.
