Hello fellow histonetters, I am doing some research on a suitable dishwasher for our lab and I'm looking to see if any of you use or have used household dishwashers in the lab. I have looked at a few models of laboratory grade dishwasher and they are EXPENSIVE! Would a regular household dishwasher suffice? >From your experiences, do the household dishwasher clean the glasswares properly? Are there CAP regulations against using a household dishwasher in the laboratory?
We still plan using laboratory grade dishwashing detergent, of course, soaking the soiled glass/plasticware in the appropriate cleanser before running it in the dishwasher. We are still going to have a deionized water rinse and testing the pH of the glass/plasticware after each cycle. Aside from possible CAP violations (if any), i don't see why a household dishwasher wouldn't work? Please, your opinions are much valued. Thank you all for your time..
