The three precautions taken in the wetlab to reduce accidental and unwanted inoculation (contamination) of sterile media can include:
1. Use of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as lab coats, gloves, and masks to minimize direct contact between the operator and the sterile media.
2. Regular cleaning and disinfection of the working area and equipment to eliminate potential sources of contamination.
3. Following proper aseptic techniques, like flame sterilization of tools and maintaining a sterile environment, to prevent introducing contaminants to the sterile media.
