Abstract
It is not necessary to spray alcohol in the cabinet before use. Turn the UV light off and turn the fan and fluorescent light on. The gas burner cannot be lit before the fan is operational in most laminar flow cabinets. While working, keep the front glass shutter as low as possible, leaving only enough space to insert your arms under the shutter.
