The Quest for the Perfect Beer: Laboratory Equipment for Brewery Science

28 Jun 2017

In the quest for the world's best beer, every brewer knows that quality beer begins with the meticulous examination and handling of ingredients, as well as the yeast culture strain. Aseptic techniques create a barrier between the contaminants in the environment and the sterile culture cell, and many brewers create positive pressure enclosures as a simple solution to this problem. This application note presents Air Science laminar flow hoods as high efficiency cabinets, ideally suited for use with non-hazardous contaminants where flexible access to the work zone is required.

Fumehoods and Biological Safety CabinetsFume hoods and biological safety cabinets are used to provide personnel, sample and environmental protection by limiting exposure to hazardous materials either by venting or enclosing hazardous sample space. Fume hoods include filtered and ductless fume hoods, general ducted fume hoods, laminar flow cabinets and cabinets for powder weighing. There are three classes of biological safety cabinet, dependent on the level of protection provided. Class I provide personnel and environmental protection, class II provide product, personnel and environmental protection. Class III provide the highest level of protection and are designed for use with high-risk biological agents. Other ventilated workspaces for the laboratory include glove boxes, glove bags, anaerobic and hypoxic workstations.
