WARNING! Damage due to UV radiation.
Microliter cuvettes, e.g., Hellma® TrayCell (or microliter cuvettes with a similar design) divert
the radiation from the light source within the cuvette so the radiation can escape upward
when the lid is not closed.
Before starting a measurement, ensure that the lid on the microliter cuvette is not open.
WARNING! Damage to health from toxic, radioactive or aggressive chemicals as well as
infectious liquids and pathogenic germs.
Observe the national regulations for handling these substances, the biological security
level of your laboratory, the material safety data sheets and the manufacturer's application
notes.
Wear personal protective equipment.
For comprehensive regulations about handling germs or biological material of risk group II
or higher, please refer to the "Laboratory Biosafety Manual" (source: World Health
Organization, Laboratory Biosafety Manual, in its respectively current valid version).
