What temperature and pressure are typically used in an autoclave?

Commonly used temperatures and pressures for autoclaves are as follows:

Normal temperature and high pressure sterilization: the temperature is generally 20-25 degrees Celsius, and the pressure will reach about 250-350MPa.

High temperature and high pressure sterilization: the temperature will generally increase to 100-200 degrees Celsius, and the pressure will also increase, reaching above 500MPa.

The normal temperature and high pressure sterilization temperature is low, and the calorific value of the items is low, which can ensure the taste and quality, and is suitable for items with high quality requirements.

Different kinds of items (such as medical devices, laboratory equipment, food, etc.) have different temperature requirements. At the same time, daily monitoring of sterilization time, temperature and pressure is also necessary to ensure sufficient sterilization effect and product quality.
