Decontamination Certificate
12. Decontamination Certificate
Dear Customer,
Any product that is to be returned to Leica Biosystems or serviced on site, must be cleaned and decontaminated in the appropriate manner. Since it is not possible to
decontaminate for prion diseases, such as CJD, BSE, CWD etc., equipment exposed to specimens containing prion diseases cannot be returned to Leica Biosystems
for repair. On-site repair of prion contaminated equipment will only be conducted after the Field Service Engineer has been educated in the risks, instructed in the
policies and procedures of the institution, and provided with personal protective equipment. Please fill out this confirmation carefully and enclose a copy with the
instrument. Attach the confirmation to the outside of the flight case or hand it directly to the service technician.
Packages will not be opened, nor servicing commenced until the Company or service engineer have received a satisfactory certificate. Should returned
goods be considered a hazard by the Company, they will be returned immediately to the customer at his/her expense. Note: Microtome knives must be in boxes.
Mandatory information: Fields marked with * are mandatory. Depending on whether the instrument is contaminated, please also complete either section A
or section B.
