Banco aspirato

English translation: extraction hood/cabinet safety cabinet

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Italian term or phrase:Banco aspirato
English translation:extraction hood/cabinet safety cabinet

Italian to English translations [PRO]
Science - Biology (-tech,-chem,micro-) / histology
Italian term or phrase: Banco aspirato
Bench used for preparing/handling histology samples:-

"Banco aspirato progettato per il ricevimento e lo stoccaggio dei contenitori monouso durante la refertazione del campione istologico conservato in formalina"

I wonder if anyone with histology experience has used a bench like this. The term aspirated bench would work, but has no hits on google, so I wonder if another term is often used.

fume hood/fume cabinet/safety cabinet
Explanation:
The latter (safety cabinet) is preferable IMO.

An enclosed workspace with air drawn through the front of the working area and expelled to the outside, sometimes through a filter. Various different classes according to the design and airflow - I II and III if memory serves correctly.
