An apparatus is disclosed for denaturing DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID and fragments thereof from laboratory equipment. The apparatus includes a chamber which defines an enclosure. The chamber has an opening for gaining access to the enclosure. A closure is provided for selectively closing the opening. The arrangement is such that when the closure is disposed in a first location thereof relative to the enclosure, the enclosure is sealed and when the closure is disposed in a second location thereof relative to the enclosure, access to the enclosure is permitted. A liner is disposed within the enclosure, the liner having an inside surface, the inside surface of the liner being reflective. An emitter is disposed within the liner, the emitter being selectively connected to a source of electrical power. The arrangement is such that in use of the apparatus, when the emitter is connected to the source of power, ultraviolet radiation is emitted from the emitter. The ultraviolet radiation is progressively reflected within the liner by the reflective inside surface so that when the laboratory equipment is located within the liner, any DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID and fragments thereof present on the equipment is denatured.
