[labnetwork] Disinfecting Keyboards and Peripherals

[Mark Weiler]

Hi Mark,

I am thinking it may be as simple as using cling wrap… Like saran wrap and other types of wraps that stick when stretched over items to keep them fresh.  There is enough flex in the plastic to allow working on a keyboard.  A user can tear a piece for the keyboard, and then dispose of it when he is finished with his process.

Best,

Mark

Greetings,
As we all work towards safe re-openings of our labs, what solutions have been discovered for disinfecting live keyboards, mouse, touchscreens etc?
We are being told it will be a requirement but we obviously can’t spray liquids directly on them and we can’t turn off these tools between uses to disconnect peripherals and reboot?

Thanks in advance,
