And leave the biosafety cabinet on during spill cleanup

To begin, apply disinfectant to a towel

And decontaminate and remove items from the area of the spill

Put the waste from the spill in a biohazard bag inside the cabinet

The biohazard bag should never be kept outside the cabinet

Put down the towel over the spill

To prevent aerosolization

Apply the disinfectant, in this case bleach

Over the towel and work from the outside to the inside

Wait the appropriate amount of time for the disinfectant to work

Next wipe up the spill and any excess liquid

With the towels

Then apply more disinfectant to the spill area

Once again wait the appropriate amount of time for the disinfectant to work

Wipe up the area one more time with the towels

Because bleach was used as a disinfectant

A sterile water rinse is used

Because bleach will corrode the stainless steel

Inside the cabinet
