The barrier air mixes with the recirculated laminar flow air in a sump underneath the work surface and is exhausted from the cabinet via a HEPA filter which is located directly under the work tray. All positive pressure zones and filter seals are surrounded by negative pressure zones so as to contain potentially hazardous aerosols.

Cytogard Cytotoxic Drug Safety Cabinets are produced with a work zone width of 90cm, 120cm or 180cm and are free-standing units that incorporate a floor stand. The standard cabinets have an exhaust discharge on the right-hand side with optional left-hand side or top exhaust available. Top exhaust is typically specified where cabinet exhaust air is to be entrained into the room exhaust.

These cabinets provide advanced system-monitoring technology and a number of unique design features intended to enhance safety and ease of use.

Cytotoxic Drug Safety Cabinet (CDSC) Provides the following protections:

• Protection of cabinet users and other staff from exposure to aerosols or vapours which may be generated in the preparation, manipulation and dispensing of cytotoxic drugs.
• Protection of drug products so that they may be prepared in an environment that is essentially free from particulate and biological contamination.
• Protection of cabinet maintenance personnel from the residue of drug particles that can contaminate filters, fans and other mechanical components.

The need for a new cabinet design led to the publication in 1982 of AS2567, the world's first standard for cytotoxic drug safety cabinets. AS 2639, first published in 1983, deals with cabinet use and installation, including the location of the cabinet in a special cleanroom. Revised versions of these documents were published in 1994. These Cytogard Cytotoxic Drug Safety Cabinets are designed and manufactured to comply with AS2252.5, an Australian Standard that has undergone a significant revision in 2017. The new standard is the most comprehensive revision of the CDSC standard and improves the overall protection of the operator, facility and environment.

Each cabinet is factory-certified to meet the specified performance requirements. These cabinets may also be used where the handling of other drugs and chemicals requires both containment and aseptic manipulation.
