PRINCIPAL OF STEAM STERILIZATION

STERILIZATION IS THE PROCESS OF THE DESTRUCTION AND ELIMINATION OF ALL FORMS OF MICROBIAL LIFE, INCLUDING BACTERIA AND ITS SUBFORMS.
THE LABORATORY AUTOCLAVE CONSISTS OF A VESSEL IN WHICH STEAM FLOWS AT A HIGH PRESSURE WITH A STERILIZATION PURPOSE. SATURATED STEAM WILL IMMEDIATELY CONDENSE AND THUS RELEASING ITS HIGH EVAPORATION HEAT, WHICH IS IN FACT THE DESTRUCTIVE AGENT. IN ORDER THAT STERILIZATION WOULD BE EFFECTIVE, STEAM MUST BE SATURATED AND, CONSEQUENTLY, ALL THE AIR INSIDE THE VESSEL MUST BE PURGED BEFORE INITIALIZING THE PROCESS.

APPLICATIONS

"Class B" autoclaves are used within the field of general medicine, dentistry, veterinary, tattoo parlours and sterilization applications in general, to sterilize any material that could have been in contact with body fluids including blood.
The general capabilities of the instrument are regulated by EN 13060 that guarantees the differing sterilization applications.
The normal processes include: Solids with and without wrapping, porous material with and without wrapping and utensils that have cavities and holes (e.g. dentistry materials.) 
To guarantee sterilization of these materials the “AUTESTER ST DRY PV” Class B, autoclaves, have an efficient staged vacuum, that performs a complete extraction of air that allows penetration of the steam vapour.
The same vacuum system is used to obtain the dry phase, which is required for perfect storage of sterilized materials.
The “AUTOCLAVES ST DRY PV” Class B includes verification and validation programs.
