title: Transfer isolator to protect personnel from exposure to peracetic acid.
abstract: A transfer isolator is described which confines peracetic acid fumes used in the gnotobiotic operation of isolators. The use of this isolator protects both personnel and animals from contact  with peracetic acid, provides additional isolator space and reduces wear on the gloves and sleeves of the main isolator.
