Samples of cell culture contamination prevention reagents
Microbial contamination is a common problem for many cell and molecular biology laboratories. The presence of microorganisms in cell cultures has a tremendous impact on the success, scientific significance, safety, and costs of work in research and industry. Indiscriminate use of antibiotics on already contaminated cell cultures or to compensate for questionable experiments and/or suboptimal cell culture facilities, does not represent a solution to the problem. Quite the contrary: due to development of antibiotics resistance, irresponsible use of these culture supplements in fact increases the contamination risk. Minerva Biolabs are a leading biotechnology company for the development and marketing of detection & elimination kits for microbial contamination control. And from Labclinics we offer you samples of two of their best-selling products for the prevention of contamination by mycoplasma and other microorganisms:
- Mycoplasma off: Mycoplasma Off™ can be used for cleaning and disinfecting all kinds of laboratory surfaces and devices, including safety cabinets, incubators, work benches, sample storage boxes, and liquid nitrogen containers. Rapidly effective against mycoplasma contaminations, Mycoplasma Off™ also has a broad antimicrobial activity against several other contaminants.
- Watershield: Water in CO2 incubators and water baths offers ideal conditions for microbial contamination. WaterShield™ is a water additive with disinfecting properties that prevents microbial growth in these reservoirs.
