When cultivating pathogenic organisms of risk category 2, special
measures must be taken to stop the organisms from escaping. The
user is responsible for this.
When using the device under protection category 2, stainless steel
clamps of the correct size must be used to affix the flasks. Due to
limited resistance to disinfectants as well as the risk of unintentional
detaching of flasks, Sticky Stuff adhesive matting is not suitable for
this purpose.
We further recommend using disposable plastic flasks with screw tops
and filter membranes. We recommend using adhesive tape to secure
the top plate against coming off unintentionally. Using glass flasks with
cotton wool or paper plugs is not sufficiently safe.
For trays with Sticky Stuff, special provisions apply
in relation to maximum permitted rotation speeds.
These must be observed to prevent cultivation ves-
sels from detaching.
For more information, see ⮫ Chapter 4.1.6 'Tray with
Sticky Stuff' on page 40.
The operator operates the device in the context of the intended use.
Only persons who have been trained for working in a biotechnology
laboratory can be considered for the role of operator. These include,
for example:
Process technicians in the fields of biotechnology and chemistry
■
Biotechnologists (biotechnicians)
■
Chemists with a specialization in biochemistry; chemists in the field
■
of organic chemistry or biochemistry
Life scientists (biologists) with special education in cytology, bac-
■
teriology, molecular biology, genetics, etc.
Lab assistants (lab technicians) from various fields
■
To be allowed to operate the device, the operator must have received
thorough training and have read and understood the operating
manual.
The operator must be informed in a training session provided by the
provider of the tasks delegated to the operator and the potential risks
