According to Gemini , Flaskworks could require a ISO 7 and/or ISO 8 clean room are classifications within the ISO 14644-1 standard for cleanrooms and clean zones. They define the level of cleanliness or the number of airborne particles allowed in a specific volume of air.
ISO 7 is a higher level of cleanliness than ISO 8. It requires fewer particles per cubic meter of air. This makes it suitable for applications that require a higher level of control over contamination, such as:
* Pharmaceutical manufacturing
* Medical device manufacturing
* Biotechnology research
* Microelectronics manufacturing
ISO 8 is a less stringent level of cleanliness compared to ISO 7. It is suitable for applications that require a moderate level of control over contamination, such as:
* General laboratory work
* Assembly of electronic components
* Food processing
Key differences between ISO 7 and ISO 8:
* Particle count: ISO 7 has a lower particle count limit than ISO 8.
* Air changes per hour: ISO 7 typically has a higher number of air changes per hour than ISO 8. This means the air is filtered more frequently, removing more particles.
* Environmental controls: ISO 7 cleanrooms often have more stringent environmental controls, such as temperature, humidity, and pressure, to maintain a clean environment.
Choosing the appropriate ISO class for a specific application depends on various factors, including the sensitivity of the products being manufactured, the level of contamination control required, and regulatory compliance.

I believe they are requiring an ISO 8 for Flaskworks which is similar to a general lab area that any hospital has.
