Good Morning Doug. This protocol of mine was approved by the Committee on Microbiological Safety at Harvard Medical School. Fortunately I never had to implement it.

> What is an appropriate method for disinfecting a microscope used for live cell imaging (or in a BSL2 facility)? 10% bleach is too strong, so what do people use? Thinking of core facility users (who can be poor at following directions), what is a relatively fool-proof way to decontaminate and not damage motorized stages, and other delicate parts?

> If you have posted protocols, can you send the links? Do you have live cell imaging policies for your facility that you would be willing to share?
