I use broken glass boxes to hold my autoclavable waste, what should I use now?
– You can use the biomedical waste boxes to hold your autoclavable waste as long as the entire box is placed into an autoclave bag before autoclaving. The reason for doing this is because the glue that holds the box together will deteriorate in the autoclave causing weakening of the box. If you would like a rigid plastic container to store autoclavable waste in your lab please contact waste management at x5719 for assistance or replacement container.
