    Antisepsis involves applying chemicals to living tissue to reduce microbes, while sanitation uses chemicals, heat, or radiation to reduce microbes from non-living surfaces. Choosing an effective control method depends on the type of microbe, sample material, sample size, and intended use because different methods are needed to control different microbes. An autoclave uses steam under pressure and high temperature to sterilize materials through the process of moist heat sterilization. Desiccation controls microbial growth by removing water from a sample to deprive microbes of the water they need. Common chemical agents used to control microbial growth include alcohols, phenols, halogens, and heavy metals.
