Autoclave (Recommended)
134°C at 2 bar for 4-6 minutes kills all microorganisms. Suitable for nearly all stainless steel and titanium instruments. Note: tungsten carbide needle holders should use 121°C low-temp cycles.
Dry Heat
160°C for 120 minutes. For moisture-sensitive instruments, but longer cycles and higher energy use.
Chemical Sterilization
Glutaraldehyde soak for 10 hours achieves sterilization. Best for heat-sensitive plastics and rubber.
Maintenance Tips
- Thoroughly clean instruments before sterilization
- Do not over-pack sterilization pouches
- Regularly validate autoclave performance with biological indicators
- Maintain usage and sterilization logs
