Mineral component do not have particular toxic effects. |
|
13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATION
Not used vials:
Vials ingredients are not toxic so the liquid culture medium can be disposed off through sewage according to local regulations, or sent to the waste water treatment, if the expiration date is over . Empty vial can be reclaimed by simple washing with water and recycled or disposed off as a non dangerous material.
Inoculated vials:
If the injected liquid contains toxic ingredients, follow instruction for the disposal of such substances.
Is advisable to neutralize bacteria growth eventually present in injected vials by thermal sterilization (autoclaving or one hour boiling) or by chemical sterilization (1 ml injection of bleach liquor).
If thermal sterilization is used is recommended to put the vials in thermal resistant bags to avoid liquid spreading trough the pierced seal during the heating.
