 To avoid contamination, pumps should be sterilized before and after use.
 
+#### Using heat

+1. You can disassemble the pump head, extract the tubing, and autoclave the tubing. (If it's your first time, make note of how the pumps are put back together)
+2. Put the tubing back in, reassemble the head, and your good to go.

+#### Using bleach and ethanol
+
 1. Create a 10% bleach dilution, or high concentration alcohol, in a container. Place the sink and source tubes of each pump you're sterilizing in the beaker.
 2. On the UI, in the _Pioreactors_ tab, click _Manage_ and go to the _Dosing_ tab.
 3. _Run continuously_ to cycle the disinfectant solution through each pump that you're using.

-It's important to not keep harsh chemicals, like bleach, in the silicone tubing for long. Cleaning pumps should always end with flushing the tubes with water or something inert. See below:

 When you are using additional LEDs outside of the optical density LED & photodiode pair, you may worry that your additional LEDs will interfere with the optical density measurement. This won't happen, as we turn off all non-optical density LEDs before taking an optical density measurement.

+#### Is optical density the same as turbidity?
 
 Turbidity is a measure of optical density, like how decibels are a measurement of sound intensity. Likewise, absorbance is a measure of optical density.
