An Electro-chemical Apparatus for the Disinfection and Cleansing of Cultures and Slides for Use in Bacteriological and Pathological Laboratories
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 May 2009
Extract
It is the custom in most laboratories where infected material is used during the progress of experimental work to have receptacles containing a disinfectant of some kind, placed so that the worker may drop any small piece of apparatus or culture into it which he has finished with, in order that such material should not be a source of danger to himself and to others in the laboratory. The disinfecting agent is more often than not some saponified tar-acid product, which, although lethal to naked bacteria may, or may not, destroy infection under the circumstances in which it is used. The fluid is also somewhat costly, apart from being uncertain in its action when resistant spores are being dealt with.
