Cell contamination refers to the phenomenon where exogenous or endogenous harmful substances enter cells and impair their normal functions. The main causes of cell contamination include unclean culture conditions, contaminated laboratory utensils, and human operational errors. Cell contamination is a troublesome issue—slight negligence can affect the final experimental results, and due to the nature of the contamination process, it cannot be eliminated during the experiment. The effective way to protect cells lies in preventing contamination in the cell culture environment, such as regular disinfection of the working environment, strict adherence to experimental operating procedures, and ensuring the sterility of utensils, among other measures. In the laboratory, CO? incubators, water trays of CO? incubators, and water baths are significant sources of contamination.

Applichem's Contamination Prevention Series products are specifically designed to target these three major contamination sources and can effectively prevent contamination by fungi (including spores), bacteria, viruses, etc. They are easy to use, non-corrosive, safe, and highly effective.
