Laboratory enclosure Ozone Free Box™

benchtopozone free

The Ozone Free Box™ is a comprehensive and effective solution to prevent the fluorescent dyes which are used for samples labelling in microarray applications (Cyanine, Alex Fluor etc...) from being oxidized and degraded by ozone. The fluorescent dyes degradation because of ozone has been experimentally demonstrated after exposure to ozone levels as low as 5 to 10 ppb (0.005 to 0.010 ppm) for period as short as 10 to 30 seconds. This attack by ozone happens during sample and microarray preparations, hybridization, washes, drying and scanning stages.
