Cleaning:
Use a commercial cleanser approved for glass. Chemglass Life Sciences
recommends item numbe
7X
™ and 7X-O-Matic® cleaning solutions.
Rinse all glassware as soon as possible after use.
To decontaminate ware, autoclave contaminated items in water containing
cleanser.
Disassemble spinner assemblies, compression fittings and paddle assemblies for
cleaning and to avoid the trapping of disinfectants and cleansers. Failure to do so
may result in the release of these compounds during use with possible detrimental
effects to cultures or assays.
Thoroughly rinse items in tap water then distilled or deionized water - even the
smallest products. Rigorously follow your rinsing protocol.
Do not use glassware that is scratched, chipped or cracked for centrifugation,
pressure, vacuum, heating or freezing. Breakage may result.
Sterilizing:
To prevent warping of the top cap and magnet holder, it is recommended that the
flask be autoclaved in the standing position only. In large vessels, place a few ml of
distilled water in the flask to generate additional steam in the vessel. Place
approximately 20 ml of water (or PBS buffer) for each 10 liter of flask volume and
autoclave @ 121C for 15 to 30 minutes.
Make sure that the vessel is vented so that pressure or vacuum
will not build up and cause vessel to explode or implode.
