Hello Fellow Netters,
Has anyone tried using some type of external UV source to decontaminate a
Leica 1850 cryostat? I found out that it is not possible to retro fit the
1850 for UV. I would like to be able to avoid having to defrost, breakdown
and bleach the cryostat everytime a suspected
be used IN PLACE of
wiping out, chemical disinfecting, and defrosting.

Hello Fellow Netters,
Has anyone tried
Paula,
A UV insert in available from Hacker Instruments. (1-800-4-HACKER) It was
not designed specifically for an 1850, but I don't see why it would not work
out for you. Give Jim Mullen a call, he should be able to give you the
device dimensions and power specifications.
Have a great day.
