    Area of Science:

    • Chemical safety
    • Laboratory equipment
    • Radiochemistry

    Background:

    • Standard fume cupboards are essential for laboratory safety but may have limitations for specific applications.
    • Radio-iodination involves handling radioactive isotopes, requiring stringent containment measures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of a modified fume cabinet for radio-iodination.
    • To compare its performance against conventional fume cupboards.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a fume cabinet equipped with a sloping front, chemical absorbing filter, and extractor fan.
    • Assessed its performance during radio-iodination procedures.
    • Compared findings with data from standard fume cupboards.

    Main Results:
