The high temperature and pressure of the steam kill or remove all forms of bacteria, viruses, fungi, and other microorganisms that may be present on the equipment or instrument.
An autoclave is a specific type of steam sterilizer that is designed to sterilize equipment and instruments in a laboratory or healthcare setting. Autoclaves are commonly used in medical and dental offices, hospitals, research laboratories, and other facilities that require sterilization of equipment and instruments.
Autoclaves typically have specific features and safety protocols, such as temperature and pressure controls, that ensure that the equipment and instruments are properly sterilized.
