Thank you for showing up for the cleaning of the laboratories! We got the checklist done, but the only concern we are left with are the unmarked sarstedt boxes and other completely unmarked samples in the -80c freezers. Soile, Saija, Janne & Heikki collected
all of them into the deep freezer immediately on the right when you enter the room (check attachment pictures). We will be throwing all of these away by the end of next week, so I highly encourage to check these samples and label them with your name and the
checking date before Friday 25th of November.

Hello everybody,
Just one last reminder (with checklist) that we will start the lab cleaning tomorrow 9 in the morning in front of molecular labs.
1. We will check liquid nitrogen storage for old and unmarked samples, going forward we are thinking that this should be only for a maximum of week long storage.
2.Walk-in coldrooms, deep freezers and normal freezers are on the wishlist to be checked
3.The dry sample storage room has one of the shelves off the rails, so maybe there is enough of us to put it back on rails.
4. Dessicators are to be checked, if you have dessicators with the broken valve on the lid, let me know and we can change it to a new one.
5. Upstairs of the water lab is to be checked if there are things to be thrown away. I will also ask if we can get the whole floor sealed solid so no dirt from shoes should fall into samples downstairs

Hello Everybody,
Just a reminder we are arranging a lab cleanup in one weeks time on 16.11 starting 9:00 in front of molecular labs. We did such an throughout cleanup last
time, that I would guess this year one day is plenty for us. Some additional wishes were that one of the shelfs on wheels in the dry sample room has come off the rails and so we could empty the shelf and lift it back on tracks. We could also check if we have
dry samples stored in desiccators and if you need long term storage for your samples, they can be stored in the dry sample room. If you use desiccators for long term storage and it is necessary for you to keep it, could you mark them with a piece of tape with
your name and date of checking. I know a week is a tight schedule, so with the desiccators I hope that they can be checked and marked before the turn of 2023.
BR,
Petri Sundqvist

We are arraging a laboratory cleanup on 16.11. starting from 9:00 in front of molecular lab (same as last year), and we will continue the next day 17.11. 9:00 if necessary. This year the focus is on samples stored in liquid
nitrogen, freezers, walk-in coldrooms, and the upstairs of water lab.
In regards to samples in liquid nitrogen, they will be checked and if there are samples with no marking they will be thrown away. I would highly encourage the people who store samples in liquid nitrogen to find time to
check your samples beforehand and mark clearly with name and date on the LN sample list. Otherwise please arrive on 16.11. since the samples might be thrown away if we cant find out whose they are.
