Thermo Fisher Scientific has launched its new cold disinfection feature for laboratory equipment. The cold disinfection technology is now a standard feature on the company’s Microm HM550 cryostat series, and the system instantly disinfects the entire cold cryo-chamber in just three minutes, dramatically reducing any risk to laboratory staff.
Unlike other solutions, cold disinfection is certified to work against aerobic bacteria and fungi in just three minutes. Other benefits of cold disinfection include speed and a more streamlined, uninterrupted workflow. The new disinfection process is 100 times faster than existing methods and the Microm HM550 cryostat can be used immediately after the disinfection cycle is complete, resulting in significantly higher throughput. The cold disinfection feature utilises Sanosil, a powerful disinfectant that is 99.99% effective against more than 144 pathogens. This gives users complete confidence in the cleanliness and safety of their cryostat.
