Cleaning

2. Disassemble the biopsy kit into its component parts, if applicable. Discard the single-use parts.
These parts cannot be disinfected.
3. Using a small brush and water, scrub each part to remove trapped material from the reusable
components.
4. Rinse with water to remove remaining particulates.

Disinfection
CAUTION:
Plastic biopsy kits can only be disinfected using a chemically compatible cold-disinfectant.
Disinfection by autoclaving or by using gas or radiation will cause damage to these parts.
Please refer to the user manual of the disinfectant for storage, use, and disposition of the disinfectant.
1. Check the disinfection duration (generally 10 hours) and temperature of the disinfectant.
2. After disinfection, follow the proper post-disinfection procedure for the disinfection method
used.
3. Inspect the components for damage such as cracks, rust or breakage. If damage is evident,
discontinue use of the biopsy kit and contact Samsung Medison Customer Service Department.
