CORE--GLASSWARE WASHING AND STERILIZING FACILITY

位于一楼的玻璃器皿清洗和消毒设施 McArdle实验室负责玻璃器皿的洗涤和高压灭菌 麦卡德尔实验室的所有调查人员。威廉·法尔博士是 该机构的教务主管和凯伦·施瓦茨女士负责监督 发送给工厂中的十名员工。 洗涤和高压灭菌程序是为每一个 研究小组。材料从实验室里拿出来，洗干净 和/或在一楼设施中进行高压灭菌，并返回到 实验室。一般来说，这平均需要两到三个小时 取走、洗涤和运送清洁材料的周转服务。这 快速周转使UP能够最大限度地降低成本和占用空间 维护实验室中的大量玻璃器皿库存。此外, 其他特殊程序，包括特殊清洗剂、超声波 吸管清洗、酸洗、去离子水漂洗等 根据需要进行，特别是对细胞培养实验室。 这些是五个高压灭菌器，每个都专门用于一个特定的 基于高压灭菌器的复杂性和类型的应用 它用于高压灭菌循环的蒸汽；这些应用包括 对大量组织培养基用的培养基瓶进行高压灭菌， 吸量管，精选的实验室玻璃器皿，大容量 细菌培养，以及组织培养的常规去污 和细菌废物。

The Glassware Washing and Sterilizing Facility located on the first floor of the McArdle Laboratory does the glassware washing and autoclaving for all of the investigators in the McArdle Laboratory. Dr. William Fahl is the faculty supervisor of this Facility, and Ms. Karen Schwarz oversees the sen to ten employees in the Facility. Washing and autoclaving procedures are established for each of the research groups. Materials are picked up from the laboratories, washed and/or autoclaved in the first-floor facility, and returned to the laboratories. I general, this involves an average two- to three-hour turnaround for pickup, washing, and delivery of the clean material. This rapid turnaround allows up to minimize the cost and space required for maintaining large glassware inventories in laboratories. In addition, other special procedures, including special cleaning agents, ultrasonic cleaning of pipettes, acid washing, rinsing with deionized water, etc., are performed as necessary, especially for the cell culture laboratories. These are five autoclaves, each of which is devoted to a specific application based upon the sophistication of the autoclave and the type of steam it uses for the autoclave cycle; these applications include autoclaving large numbers of media bottles for tissue culture media, pipettes, selected pieces of laboratory glassware, large volumes of bacterial media, as well as the routine decontamination of tissue culture and bacterial waste.
