Development of a Testing Protocol for Air Monitoring of Workers Compounding Volatile Chemotherapy in Ventilated Cabinets and Comparing Protection of Different Types of Ventilated Cabinets

Washington State Pharmacy Association

Project Summary

We have identified three organizations that have both 100% externally exhausted ventilated cabinets and recirculating externally exhausted biological safety cabinets, so that direct comparisons of the two types of ventilated cabinets can be performed using the same procedures within each organization.  Each organization will use the same technician from their staff to perform the work at both of their BSC installations at their facilities.  This will allow for an industry comparison rather than just data from one organization. 

Amount Awarded: $131,783.00
