• Disinfectants can be added to prevent growth of organisms.
• Raise the temperature to 90 °C or higher to once a week for half an hour for the purpose of decontamination.
• Markers tend to come off easily in water baths. Use water resistant ones.
• If application involves liquids that give off fumes, it is recommended to operate water bath in fume hood or in a well ventilated area.
