Laboratory Hoods

Many of the materials used in laboratories give off fumes, mists, vapors, particulates or aerosols which are hazardous. To minimize exposure to these materials, special precautions need to be taken. This often means within a "hood".

MARCOM's Laboratory Hoods emphasizes how to properly use laboratory hoods and shows how to test them to ensure correct functioning. The training also covers how hoods can protect an experiment, the facility, and most importantly, the employee.
