Avoiding Cell Culture Contamination Using the Aseptic Technique
Cell cultures can provide a nutritious environment to unwanted biological microorganisms.
Cell cultures can provide a nutritious environment to unwanted biological microorganisms. Such contamination can have a serious and deadly effect on production and harvesting of valuable biological material. This paper explores some questions related to the current accepted processes when using laminar flow cabinets and seeks to offer a modern alternative – the aseptic workstation.
- What are the challenges in maintaining aseptic conditions?
- Is the use of UV an acceptable alternative?
- How does an aseptic closed environments compare?
