The isolation suits that I am referring to are the ones that people use to isolate themselves from the surrounding air for protection. The suits used in very clean rooms and in labs with extremely dangerous diseases. If one were to fart while wearing one of these suits does the smell linger, is it instantly replaced by fresh air or is it basically the same as farting in a closed area? What about in a space suit?
I’ve farted inside a cleanroom suit (Sheesh, the things that one admits to for the sake of fighting ignorance!)
Airflow is controlled inside a cleanroom. In most, there is a 3-5mph breeze blowing straight down and through the perforated flooring. The suits are also made of a synthetic fabric which allows some air movement. I never smelled myself, though there was one time that a coworker sitting about fifteen feet away heard me over the noise of the air handlers and machinery and laughed.
Interesting but not quite what I meant by isolation suits. I am talking about these types of suits where a person is isolated from the room they are working in.
Hold your nose. No…wait…
Nevermind. 
Linky no worky.
This link can’t even be fixed: There’s no there there.
Wow that was pretty crappy coding on my part, here is the link.
Since only you could possibly smell or hear it, it doesn’t count. According to clean room rules, you get to rip another for the benefit of fellow employees, but only after removing the suit. Isolation farts are like a muligan in golf.
While on the county hazmat team, we checked out “suit breach monitors” which one was supposed to wear inside a level A suit, the monitor alerting if it sensed any number of chemicals, including methane, indicative of a failure in suit integrity. It wasn’t too long before brrrrrrtttttt was followed by woop woop woop. :eek: 
Dammit, I’m wearing a goretex suit right now and I’m feeling a bit gassy… I was all set to do my part for ignorance.
Now what’s fun is when you got someone wedged inside a tool making a repair and you let one go in just the right area…
