Hi Guy, I had the same problem. The manufacturer of Contrad 70 recommended Decon 90. (Ficher Scientific). It works fine and can also be used for ultrasonic cleaning.

Hi all, I want to clean a flow cell internally, and Contrad 70 seems to be the most frequently recommended detergent for periodic "flushes". Trouble now is getting my hands on the stuff. Does anyone else in continental europe have trouble sourcing Contrad 70? Our local distrubutors tell us there's some ISO norm problem preventing them from selling it in the EU (I never get to heard what the problem is specifically, of course). Therefore, if you've managed to find a reseller, I'd appreciate hearing from you. Hints re: proven alternatives to Contrad 70 are welcome as well, of course, and hopefully one of those can be obtained here!
