precautions while using centrifuge

During preventive maintenance, ensure that the nut that secures the rotor to the shaft is tight (check the manufacturer s instructions).Clean and disinfect all centrifuges regularly according to the manufacturer s recommendations. Contact the manufacturer for guidance if the operator s manual does not specify cleaning or disinfecting agents. Prolonged contact with some disinfectants (e.g., 10% sodium hypochlorite) may damage the rotor and other centrifuge components; be sure that such solutions are removed by rinsing well with water.
