What is the best way to clean plates after use?
Wash with hot tap water (this will help dissolve the acrylamide) and detergent (we recommend a non-fluorescent detergent such as Hemo-sol glassware detergent, supplied by MERZ and DADA AG. Switzerland, code no. 56022 3E). Use a soft sponge to ensure all adhered polyacrylamide fragments are removed. Be careful not to use washing implements that may scratch or damage the glass. Rinse thoroughly with Milli-Q water and leave to air dry. Alternatively, plates can be dried using lint-free wipes (Kimberly-Clark, code no. 33370).
