Cleaning Autoanalyzer with PMMA UV cuvette

Q. Can you recommend a cleaner for autoanalyzer with PMMA UV cuvette? We are looking to avoid latex reagent buildup experienced using Triton x-100 cleaning.

A. I recommend you evaluate the use of a 1% Liquinox detergent followed by a thorough rinse. Liquinox has been used in a wide variety of auto analyzers for many decades. Liquinox is a blend of wetting agents, dispersants, chelating agents, rinse aids and emulsifiers that will be much more broadly efficient than triton x-100.
