Microbiology laboratories are mainly composed of six parts: preparation room, washing room, sterilization room, aseptic room, constant temperature incubation room and general laboratory
a Preparation room
Preparation room is used for the preparation of culture media and sample processing. The room is equipped with reagent cabinets, special cabinets for storing instruments or materials, laboratory tables, electric stoves, refrigerators and water and sewage, power supply and so on.
bWashing room
The washing room is used for washing and scrubbing utensils, etc. The washing room is used for washing and scrubbing utensils. Because the used utensils have been contaminated by microorganisms, and sometimes there are pathogenic microorganisms. Therefore, it is better to set up a washing room if conditions permit. The room should be equipped with a heater, steamer, scrubbing utensils with pots, buckets, etc.
There should also be a variety of bottles of brush, decontamination powder, soap, laundry detergent, etc.. Conditional units can also be in the room, set up for daily testing of water distillers device
c Sterilization room
Sterilization room is mainly used for the sterilization of the culture medium and a variety of sterilized appliances, the room should be equipped with high-pressure steam sterilizers, ovens and other sterilizing equipment and facilities. Indoor ventilation device (fume hood) or ventilation fan
d Aseptic room
Aseptic room is also known as the inoculation room, is the system of inoculation, purification of strains of bacteria and other aseptic operations of the special laboratory. In microbiological work, the inoculation transplantation of strains is a major operation, this operation is characterized by the need to ensure that the strains are pure and to prevent contamination by stray bacteria.
In the general environment of the air, due to the presence of many dust and stray bacteria, it is easy to cause contamination, the inoculation of the work of great interference.
e culture room
Culture room is the production, preparation of microbial culture medium and test reagents required for the place, the main equipment should be the side table and medicine cabinet.
