[0002] Bacteria are basic materials for microbiological and life science research. In the medical field, there is a complete set of bacteria for the preparation of diagnostic products, the production of bacterins, the study of microbial pathogenicity, the antibacterial experiment of drugs, and the microbial testing of drugs. Microorganisms have life vitality and are prone to variation or even death during subculture. Therefore, bacterial subculture and preservation are important basic work.
[0003] At present, laboratory bacterial related experiments all need manual operation, which is tedious and time-consuming. Improper operation may cause bacterial contamination, resulting in a series of safety hazards, affecting experimental results, and even harming the operator. Therefore, the operator may be infected with dangerous bacteria. Improper bacterial operation may cause the following hazards:
[0004] 1. Laboratory safety risk: Improper operation in the laboratory may cause bacterial contamination, affecting experimental results and even causing cross contamination in the laboratory, threatening the health of laboratory workers.
[0005] 2. Infection risk: Improper operation may cause workers to directly contact harmful bacteria, increasing the risk of infection. For example, when taking seed jar bacteria, if hand hygiene is not paid attention to or appropriate protective equipment is not worn, the risk of infection with bacteria and toxins will increase.
[0006] 3. Biological hazards: If pathogenic bacteria or toxic bacteria are involved in bacterial operation, improper operation may release these harmful substances into the environment, causing harm to operators and others.
[0007] 4. Occupational health problems: Long-term exposure to incorrect bacterial operation environment may cause various occupational health problems, including but not limited to skin irritation, respiratory diseases, etc.
[0008] 5. Influence on experimental results: Bacterial contamination may cause experimental failure, because miscellaneous bacteria will consume the nutrients of culture medium, change the physicochemical properties of fermentation broth, and affect the yield and quality of products.
[0009] 6. Interference with production process: In industrial production, bacterial contamination may cause production interruption, product quality problems, and even economic losses.
