Is your workspace free of chemical or biological residues? Is it as clean as it needs to be for research success? In a forthcoming SelectScience webinar, Annett Schneider, Global Product Manager of Safety and Essential Applications at Merck KGaA, will share her expertise, presenting practical guidelines for laboratory cleaning processes.

Registration for the online event on Wednesday, October 25 is now open >>

Thorough, residue-free cleaning is essential for reliable processes. This applies to both laboratories and production facilities. Everything that comes into contact with chemicals or biological substances must be free of impurities, both before and after use.

The webinar will illustrate characteristics of lab cleaning processes affected by regulations, standards and individual environments and requirements. It also covers essential application topics (e.g. validation procedures) and provides guidelines on how to carry out daily cleaning effectively, safely and with a focus on environmental protection.

What You Will Learn:
Participants will learn about specifics of applicable cleaning standards. Furthermore, ways to improve cleaning process effectiveness will be explored, with a view to helping you achieve reliable analytical results. In this webinar, detergent characteristics and practical guidelines (e.g. validation methods) will also be covered, as well as application examples for individual cleaning processes.

Who Should Attend:
Staff and managers of chemical labs (e.g. quality control, research)

Autoclaves and SterilizersAutoclaves and sterilizers are commonly used to sterilize laboratory equipment, instruments and growth media using constant pressure and temperature. When choosing an autoclave or sterilizer consider medical or laboratory application, size, loading and sterilization method. Sterilization methods include flame (Bunsen burners), heat (steam or dry), chemical and UV.Washing EquipmentWashing equipment is more convenient than ever before with automated systems, integrated and multi-application systems available. For instance microplate washers can be programmable, combined with reagents dispensers and used for applications such as ELISA, multiplex assays and PCR clean up.RegulatoryPharmaceutical regulations impact on all areas of drug development, manufacture and control and supply. Services are provided from the early stages of drug development and clinical trials through to dossier submission, approval and marketing. Regulatory also includes submission of analytical studies from the pharmaceutical product and safety. Laboratory ManagementLaboratory management involves overseeing the operations of a lab, ensuring compliance with safety regulations, optimizing workflows, and maintaining equipment. Efficient lab management is key to ensuring accurate results and minimizing downtime. Technologies like laboratory information management systems (LIMS) and automated lab equipment are helping labs streamline operations.
