[Histonet] Cryostat disinfection

2013-08-17 Thread Cynthia Baranowski
In my previous email regarding weekly cryostat disinfection-- I meant to say 
that we clean with 70% alcohol, then bring to room temp, disinfect with 
Cavicide, wipe down with abs alcohol, bring back down to -22C. We also use 70% 
alcohol for our routine daily cleaning.

[Histonet] Cryostat cleaning

2013-08-17 Thread Cynthia Baranowski
The only method acceptable to CAP is bringing the cryostat to room temp and 
disinfecting weekly UV light will not be an acceptable alternative by CAP.
We clean out all tissue debris, wipe down with abs alcohol, bring cryostat to 
room temp, use Cavicide to disinfect, wipe down again with abs alcohol. We use 
70 % alcohol for daily cleaning.
