Gowning
This page includes instructions on how to dress before entering the cleanroom.
Before entering the gowning room
Make sure you are wearing appropriate attire:
- Shoes should fully enclose the feet (no sandals, open toe, or sling-back shoes).
- Remove outer clothing (i.e., hats, jackets, fuzzy sweaters).
