Kontinkankaan kampuksen välinehuoltopalvelut toimivat pienemmällä palvelukapasiteetilla koko kesälomakauden 23.6.-13.8.2025 ajan, jolloin tavarat ja astiat saattavat tulla valmiiksi normaalia hitaammin. Kiireellisissä asioissa olethan yhteydessä välinehuoltoon s-postilla tai puhelimitse. -17.6.2025 saakka on mahdollista varata soluviljelykaappien pesu ja sterilointi, varaa aika DWA-valinehuolto(a)oulu.fi<mailto:DWA-valinehuolto@oulu.fi> -Soluviljelykaappeja ei pestä eikä steriloida lomajakson aikana. Sterilointikaappien pesu- ja sterilointiaikoja on varattavissa jälleen 14.8.2025 alkaen -Astiat ja steriloitavat tavarat tulee merkitä kunnolla. Vastuu merkinnöistä on aina tavaran tuojalla/ryhmällä. -Jäteastioita ei pidä ylitäyttää maljoilla. Max täyttö jäteastian yläreunaan asti ja maljojen nestetilavuus saa olla max 1Litra/astia. Ylitäytetyt astiat valuttavat nestettä autoklaavin pohjalle. Hyvää Kesää Kaikille! DWA services at the Kontinkangas campus will operate at reduced capacity throughout the holiday season from June 23 to August 13, which may result in slower processing of items and dishes. For urgent matters, please contact Instrument Maintenance via email or phone. * Until June 17, it is possible to book the cleaning and sterilization of cell culture cabinets. Book a time at DWA-valinehuolto(a)oulu.fi<mailto:DWA-valinehuolto@oulu.fi>. * Cell culture cabinets will not be cleaned or sterilized during the holiday period. * Cleaning and sterilization times for sterilization cabinets can be booked again from August 14 onwards. * Items and dishes to be sterilized must be properly labeled. The responsibility for labeling always lies with the person/group bringing the items. * Waste bins should not be overfilled with plates. The maximum fill level is to the top edge of the bin, and the total volume of agar should not exceed 1 liter. Overfilled bins will leak liquid onto the bottom of the autoclave. Have a great summer, everyone!

Hi all, I will shutdown BCO-NAS1 today for few days because of the power cuts as it is sensitive to abrupt power interruptions and the UPS does not have charge for the whole duration. Antti
