Do you wonder if you fully understand the scope of contamination risk in your biological safety cabinets (BSCs)? Do you feel comfortable with your current contamination policies and programs? If not, you’re in good company, as this requires specialized training and experience. Unfortunately, what we don’t know can hurt us—and our operations.
Contamination is a relentless challenge. Contamination infiltrates labs and other workplaces via many means, including mislabeled materials, cross-contamination, and soiled gear. It can strike any organization, leading to unsafe work environments, compromised clean rooms, interruption of operations, extensive and costly repairs, and more. It’s key to understand the presence and threat of contamination—and how to stop it before it becomes a problem.
