We have a brand new Eppendorf centrifuge in BCO 4^th floor. There are still users in the Kieppi who do not have any basic lab manners. Wrong adapters used, wet adapters, liquid in side… Somebody has to go back to the basics in their training, and supervisors are responsible that their personnel is trained.

The centrifuge has been in general use, but in case this happens once more, the use will be restricted only for Core facility use. Next time if needed we can track down the individual misuser.

There is a lab book and calender to sign in your use, and to ensure that you obey this, samples running without any signing can be removed any time.
