Abstract
No assignee for this patent application has been made.News editors obtained the following quote from the background information suppli ed by the inventors:“Various types of processing and/or manufacturing operation s, for example in the pharmaceutical and semiconductor sectors, require extremel y clean and controlled environments in order to prevent contaminationof the pro ducts being produced. It is generally accepted that cleanroom personnel represen t one ofthe main sources of potential product contamination, and thus reduction or separation of such personnelfrom the manufacturing process is highly desira ble. In such cleanroom manufacturing operations, the twomost common forms of co ntainment systems which facilitate this personnel separation are known as restricted access barrier systems (RABS) and isolators.
