- What is a Formalin Dispensing Fume Cabinet?
A Formalin Dispensing Fume Cabinet, also known as a Formaldehyde Fume Hood, is a laboratory fume cabinet designed specifically for handling and dispensing formalin, a formaldehyde solution gas in water. Formalin is commonly used as a preservative for biological specimens and is known to be highly toxic and carcinogenic.
A Formalin Dispensing Fume Cabinet typically features:
-
Positive air pressure: The cabinet is designed to maintain a positive air pressure inside the cabinet to prevent contamination from entering the cabinet from the outside environment.
-
HEPA filtration: A high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter is used in the exhaust system to remove any formalin particles that may be released into the air.
-
Work surface: The work surface is designed to be easy to clean and disinfect, and is typically made of a material that is resistant to chemicals and corrosives.
-
Access ports: Access ports or gloves are typically provided to allow the user to manipulate samples or equipment while minimizing the risk of exposure to formalin.

- What is a Formalin Dispensing Fume Cabinet used for?
The primary purpose of a Formalin Dispensing Fume Cabinet is to provide a controlled environment for handling formalin, which can be harmful if it is inhaled or comes into contact with skin. A Formalin Dispensing Fume Cabinet uses a combination of physical and airflow barriers to prevent the release of formalin into the environment and to protect the user from exposure.
It is important to use a Formalin Dispensing Fume Cabinet in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and guidelines, as well as any relevant safety regulations, to ensure effective containment of formalin and to minimize the risk of exposure to this hazardous material.
