Has anyone tried Benzalkonium Chloride for cleaning and preventing fungal growth at the water tray of CO2 incubator?

05 January 2016 1 608 Report

What I want to know, is what ar the recommended Benzalkonium Chloride final concentrations for cleaning surfaces and to add to the water tray of a CO2 incubator. Looking forward for your answers!

Diego Raffo

0.02% benzalkonium chloride works well for the water tray.
