Safety measures for the use of the Bacticinerator in the laboratory

It is important to comply with security measures, because it is not only the right way to work, it is the only way to do it. Therefore, working in a laboratory involves the use of equipment and other elements, whose dangers are mandatory to study them to prevent in all aspects. Reflecting on safety measures in the laboratory is a formal requirement, since the risk of accidents such as burns, poisoning, fires or electrical shocks are always present.

In this case, with the use of the Bacticineradores, as equipment used to sterilize microbiological handles by heat and by infrared inside biological safety cabinets, they become easy to use, although they are easy to use, do not provide fire, and with resistance to the wind, their use requires measures of care by the operator, since in this way, can avoid irreparable damage.

Safety Measures

The use of lighters is only one of the teams that creates aerosols and risk in laboratories. The use of this type of equipment inside the cabinets causes two problems; the first, they are able to fractionate the air flows inside the cabinets putting at risk the personnel who work. Secondly, it is that serious accidents, including explosions, have been reported.

Recommendations for Use

Bacticinerators have the advantage that they can be used inside biological safety cabinets, unlike lighters, because they alter airflows and are contraindicated. These devices reach temperatures of at least 800°C, killing microorganisms in the first 5-10 seconds.

The bacteriological loop is the tool used in the exercise of microorganisms to change an inoculant agent taken from the stock solution to a new culture medium. To do this, the loop is heated to red hot to disinfect and, when it has cooled, a sample of the desired bacterial culture is taken. The amount of inoculum depends on the diameter of the filament ring. The sample is then seeded on a plate, passing the zigzag loop across the surface of the crop.

It can be widely used in biosafety cabinet, avoiding contamination in procedures that require sterile environments.
