🧫 One tiny mistake can contaminate an entire cell culture — so how do scientists keep everything sterile?

Join Arran for a rapid walkthrough of aseptic technique inside a microbiology safety cabinet (MSC), also known as a lab hood.

This video covers:
🧼 Cleaning the hood with disinfectant and 70% ethanol
🥼 Gowning up with PPE and sterile technique
🌬️ How airflow inside the MSC protects samples
🧪 Handling tubes, bottles and media safely
⚡ Using pipettes without contaminating cell cultures

Aseptic technique is one of the most important skills in:

Cell culture
Biotechnology
Medical research
Molecular biology labs

Perfect for:

- A-Level Biology students
- University lab practicals
- Cell biology & biotech topics
- Anyone curious about real lab work

Short. Clean. Surprisingly stressful science.
