Unloading Materials and Equipment
• Objects in contact with contaminated material should be surface
decontaminated before removal from the cabinet.
• All open trays or containers should be covered before being removed
from the cabinet.
Wipe-Down
• Wipe down the interior surfaces of the cabinet with a suitable
disinfectant, or 70% ethanol, and allow to dry.
• Periodically lift the work surface and wipe down the area beneath it.
• Inspect and clean the towel catch located at the rear of the work area,
beneath the work pan.
• Dispose of rubber gloves appropriately, and have lab coat laundered
properly.
• Wash hands and arms thoroughly with germicidal soap.
Shutdown
• Lower the sash to turn off the fluorescent light and cabinet blower and
activate the UV light if appropriate.
Note: Cell Logic Biosafety Cabinets with Scope-Ready Package will not
allow for easy movement of the sash with the microscope eyepieces
installed. The blower and safety interlock system will typically work in
manual mode for these models unless the microscope is disengaged from
the Pure-Vu Seal.

Package, activate the UV light.
