2. Chemo therapy agents should always be prepared in a ___________ flow hood

Explanation

Chemo therapy agents should always be prepared in a vertical flow hood because it provides a controlled and sterile environment. Vertical flow hoods have a downward laminar airflow, which helps to prevent contamination and maintain a clean workspace. This is crucial when handling chemotherapy agents, as they can be hazardous and require strict precautions to protect both the pharmacist and the patient. Horizontal flow hoods, on the other hand, have a higher risk of contamination due to their airflow pattern, making them unsuitable for preparing chemotherapy agents.
