Selecting The Sterilization Program; Running The Sterilization Program - Biomega BioClave Operation Manual

* Verify all samples are not sealed, capped or closed.
* Don't overload the trays above the stated limit (see Appendix 1).
* Don't stack the trays one above the other or put them in direct contact with
the walls of the sterilization chamber.
* When handling the trays, always use the tray removal tool.
* Wrap each sample separately, if samples are wrapped together verify that
they are of the same material.
* Seal the wrap with sterilization adhesive ribbon or by a thermal sealer.
* Never seal with metallic clips, pins, etc. as this jeopardizes the maintenance
of the sterility;
* When using sterilization paper, set the plastic part downward (tray side)
and the paper side facing upward.
