Info

Principles of Steam Sterilization Steam is the ideal sterilant for items that can withstand moisture and high temperatures because it is: • nontoxic • readily available • fairly easy to control
Principles of Steam Sterilization Steam is Water in the Vapor State Steam Heats by Condensing and Giving Up Energy • 6.8X More Energy Required – Boiling from liquid to Vapor at 212F than heating from 70F- 212F • By-product is Condensation – Remains on product – Rolls off
