Why do prints need to be produced under a laminar flow hood?
This requirements ensures that we know, and our customers know that our prints and spore syringes created from them are as clean as possible.
Why batches of 50 or more?

This requirement ensures we don’t get immature samples or samples so small that customers would be upset if they received on.
