Effective contamination risk mitigation: Integrated 180 °C sterilization routine
Contamination is the sword of Damocles always present in a cell culture lab. Inevitably, identification of the contamination source, its removal and repetition of experiments leads to significant binding of lab staff and temporary stop of experiments. In the end, a contamination makes you lose money and valuable time-to-market, especially if it remains undetected like contamination with Mycoplasma.
Almost all current CO2 incubator shakers use UV-lights that irradiate the airstream or chamber surfaces that are in the line of sight of the UV-light. However, UV-light irradiation is per se locally restricted and does not include all critical areas where media spills and moisture can be expected e.g., underneath the platform. The CellXpert CS220 is the first shaker to apply the established and high contamination protection standards of CO2 incubator-based cell cultivation – a 180 °C sterilization. And the best part: You don't need to pay extra, it is already integrated.
Don't let contamination get in your way!
Features:
• 180 °C sterilization* instead of mere UV-decontamination of airstream or surfaces
• All chamber components and the platform are included in the sterilization routine
• Downloadable performance protocol e.g., for internal and external audits including date, time, temperature reached, and a signature field
• Wizard provides short, clear, and illustrated step-by-step instructions, to ensure a standardized and complete procedure irrespective of different users
• Access to start sterilization can be restricted by user management
* Note for stacked devices: to avoid temperature control interference during 180 °C sterilization, we recommend running the process when the device directly above is idle. The device underneath will not be affected by the sterilization process.

Easy disinfection within a few minutes: Stainless steel chamber without bells and whistles
A key aspect of contamination prevention according to recommendations for Good Cell Culture Practice is frequent and complete wipe disinfection of the chamber interior – including the space behind cover sheets. For example, for CO2 incubators it is recommended to do this monthly, typically followed by a 180 °C overnight sterilization. So, the more chamber parts and crevices you have in your CO2 incubator shaker, the more time you need to invest for reliable contamination prevention. Especially if heating fins and cables covered by metal sheets are involved, this can be very time-consuming. In contrast, not cleaning and going for a "hope for the best"-approach bears a significant economic risk, especially if a contamination goes undetected over time.
The design of the CellXpert family including the CS220 follows the "If it's easy to do, it’s more likely to get done"-approach and lets you do proper cleaning within a few minutes:
• Seamless, stainless steel chamber
• Hygienic design according to EN ISO 14159:2008 standard: Fulfilled
• Only two parts (platform and sub-platform) can be removed easily within 1:30 min for full access to all chamber walls – no cover sheets that hide more
• Glide-up door glides up and out of your way so you can easily reach every corner of the device – even at the back of the chamber
• No drive wheel, crevices, cables, cover sheets, heating fins etc. inside for contaminants to hide behind
