Laminar Air Flow Hoods
The underlying principle of a laminar air flow
hood is that a constant flow of HEPA filtered air
at a rate of approximately 90 linear feet per
minute physically sweeps the work area and
prevents the entry of contaminated air
The hood workspace is used to prevent the
contamination of compounded sterile products.

The HEPA filter is located in the fragile mesh between
thin metal strips at the back of the hood behind the
HEPA filter screen
Nothing should be permitted to come in contact with the
HEPA filter
NO cleaning solution

No Paper, Pens, Calculators, or Labels in
the Hood
Only products essential to product preparation
should be placed in the laminar flow hood to
minimize the potential for contamination

Eating, drinking, and smoking is always
prohibited
Talking or coughing should be directed away
from the hood to minimize air flow turbulence
A mask covering mouth and nose must be worn

Principles of Steam Sterilization (cont.)
The killing power of steam is due to its latent
heat of vaporization
80 calories: 1 L water to boilingg
540 calories: 1 L boiling water to steam
Page 13
Action of Steam
Steam contacts a cooler surface,
condenses, causing a huge decrease in
volume and setting up a negative
pressure that draws more steam
Condensation occurs as longg as there is
a temperature differential
