1. Vaccine bath
2. Pasteurization of milk
3. Fractional sterilisation
(b) At a temperature of 100`C :-
1. Boiling at 100`C.
2. Steam at atmospheric pressure at 100`C for
90minutes.
3. Steaming at 100`C for 3 successive days.
(c) At the temperature of above 100`C
Autoclave :- Autoclaving is the process of sterilisation by
statured steam under high pressure above 100`C.
essentially it is a modified pressure cooker or boiler
which may be horizontal or vertical. It is a double –
walled or jacketed chamber made of stainless steel or
gunmetal with a supporting frame. The steam circulates
within the jacket and is supplied under high pressure to
the closed inner chamber. Where goods are kept for
sterilisation.
Types of autoclaves
1. Simple iron – jacked
2. Low – pressure low temperature type.
3. High – pressure high vaccum type where as much as
98% of the air present is rapidly expelled by an
electric pump and sterilisation is done without delay.
Sterilization by chemical methods :
Characteristic of ideal antimicrobial chemical agent
1. Antimicrobial activity
2. Solubility
3. Stability
5. Homogeneous
8. Capacity to penetrating
10. Deodorizing
12. Availability
