Aseptic technique is familiar territory for medical professionals. However, the depth or thoroughness of the practices applied may vary widely. What is the correct way to remove gloves? How far inside the BSC should work be performed? Where is the only safe place to touch pipettes and sharps? How often should lab coats be changed? What is the difference between cleaning and disinfecting? What size of spill should be handled with a spill kit vs absorbent towels? This concise volume is packed with practical content on topics such as:

• Creating an aseptic workplace.
• Correct use of personal protective equipment.
• Do's and dont's of using laboratory instruments and equipment.
• Personal and laboratory hygiene.
• Types and routes of laboratory-acquired infections.
• Environmental monitoring.
• Special requirements for the cleanroom.

Appendices provide multiple self-tests that are entertaining as well as instructional. Also included are suggested readings, an environmental monitoring schedule, and other helpful tools.
