Features

Advanced Design and Engineering
bioGO Biocontainment Laboratories comply with the NIH CDC Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL) 5th edition guidelines. Standard enhancement such as anterooms, directional airflow, HEPA filtered supply air and HEPA filtered exhaust air provide added safety for the operators, samples, and the environment. These enhancements allow the laboratory to meet the World Health Organization (WHO) Biosafety Level 3.

Flexibility of Operations
Our mobile containment laboratories are designed by a team of biocontainment experts to provide the optimal safety for the handling of biologically contaminated materials. This allows the facility to be effectively utilized for manipulating samples required to be handled in a containment laboratory environment.

Efficient Workflow
Germfree’s bioGO Mobile Biocontainment Laboratories are engineered and equipped for the most efficient workflow. The facility is divided into designated work zones. Each zone provides HEPA filtered supply air and the primary containment equipment required for a safe sample flow throughout the laboratory process. Additionally, we strategically place stainless steel workstations, transfer airlocks, storage and supply areas, fold down gowning benches, and staging tables.

Enhanced Ergonomics

HEPA Filtered sample transfer airlocks centrally located in the Laboratory Command Center allow for samples to be processed into the laboratory while maintaining robust Chain of Custody Procedures.

Design Excellence
Germfree’s mobile biocontainment laboratories are designed to be exceptionally durable and easily cleanable. To achieve this, only the highest grade, cleanroom-compatible materials are used in the facility’s construction. The interior walls are Arcoplast, a high performance composite that provides a seamless interior suitable for frequent wash-downs with sanitizing agents as well as gas bio-decontamination. The floor is seamless Armstrong Medintech® vinyl, coved up the walls for ease-of-cleaning.

All work surfaces are seamless stainless steel with casework designed for gas and vapor phase decontamination. Surfaces are coved for easy spill cleanup and sanitization. Edges are rounded and polished to avoid snagging Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).

bioGO® Laboratories are designed to be powered from shore power and are equipped with an automatic transfer switch for integration to locally available generators to provide redundancy in case of power outages or fluctuations.

Mechanical Specifications

A heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system is installed in the bioGO facility. The HVAC system is engineered to maintain a comfortable working temperature and humidity, and provides an inward flow of air into the BSL-2 laboratories. In the “BSL-2 Enhanced” Laboratory, the mechanical ventilation also prevents recirculation to spaces outside of the laboratory. The variable capacity, 11 Ton HVAC system is designed for the rigors of a fully exhausted “BSL-2 Enhanced” Laboratory in a package that has been proven to handle the challenges of a mobile platform.

Electrical Specifications

Connections for utility power and/or auxiliary generator inputs are provided via transfer switch. Diesel electric generator packages are optionally available and can be supplied by local equipment rental companies.
