Does anyone know of a supplier for Roccal? I want some to put in cell
culture incubator water trays.

Is there an alternative to Roccal?

Thanks,
Dave.

Roccal is a "microbicide" that is used to disinfect anything from dog pens
to scuba gear to the water you put in a cell culture incubator.

The supplier changed the name to Professional Lysol, we get ours from VWR
Scientific. The chemical composition is still the same.

from my experience in cell culture : keep it clean , don't put your fingers
in it , use gloves or forceps. Tric : heat a copper coin till it glows and
drop it in water bath.
Enjoy your research

Why burn your fingers? Just use a length of copper wire. You are going to
have to clean out the grey-green stuff eventually, and yes, that is poisonous.
How else could it work?

It has been discontinued for a while now.
