Guidelines
  • Thoroughly sterilize all materials and work surfaces before pouring media.
  • Use sterile technique after autoclaving, when pouring media into containers.
  • Wear a lab coat and clean gloves that have been thoroughly soaked in 70% ethanol during media pouring.
  • Do not turn off laminar flow hood blower fans during media setting time.
  • Do not leave UV light on once media is in the flow hood. The UV light will damage the vitamin content of the media.
