1.5 Disposal Management Concept
The currently valid local regulations governing disposal must be observed. It is in
the responsibility of the user to arrange proper disposal of the individual com-
ponents.
All parts which may comprise potentially infectious materials have to be dis-
infected by suitable validated procedures (autoclaving, chemical treatment)
prior to disposal. Applicable local regulations for disposal have to be carefully
observed.
The instruments and electronic accessories (without batteries, power packs etc.)
must be disposed off according to the regulations for the disposal of electronic
components.
Batteries, power packs and similar power source have to be dismounted from
electric/electronic parts and disposed off in accordance with applicable local
regulations.
1.6 Instrument Disinfection
Analytical instruments for in vitro diagnostic involve the handling of human
samples and controls which should be considered at least potentially infectious.
Therefore every part and accessory of the respective instrument which may have
come into contact with such samples must equally be considered as potentially
infectious.
Before doing any servicing on the instrument it is very important to thorough-
ly disinfect all possibly contaminated parts. Before the instrument is removed
from the laboratory for disposal or servicing, it must be decontaminated. De-
contamination should be performed by authorised well-trained personnel only,
observing all necessary safety precautions. Instruments to be returned have to
be accompanied by a decontamination certificate completed by the responsible
laboratory manager. If a decontamination certificate is not supplied, the return-
ing laboratory will be responsible for charges resulting from non-acceptance of
the instrument by the servicing centre, or from authority’s interventions.
