Microbial contamination in laboratories can have serious consequences.

Contaminated testing can lead to anomalies in data results and the need for re-testing, consequentially delaying research schedules, increasing lab costs and damaging the integrity of the lab. Contamination can also cause illness of laboratory staff.

BioCote® antimicrobial protection is already used on a wide variety of lab equipment, from autoclaves to benchtop science equipment. In a recent study, Stuart benchtop equipment has been shown to harbour 96.6% fewer microbes than standard lab equipment.

BioCote® protected products complement established Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and Good Microbiological Practice (GMP) protocols, in ensuring that laboratory environments comply with the highest health and safety standards.

Whilst surface disinfection in the laboratory is an essential requirement, BioCote® protected products represent a powerful weapon against the hazards of lab-acquired infection and contamination of experimental or test samples. This is particularly true for products subjected to physical contact with reagents, or repeated hand contact by multiple users.
