Sterilizers are essential basic equipment in every laboratory, which can be used for bottles and jars in the physical and chemical laboratories, culture media in the microbiology laboratory, extraction solvents in the molecular biology laboratory, and waste disposal in the medical laboratory.

Types of sterilizers:

1. High pressure steam sterilizer

High-pressure steam sterilizers are widely used. They can be used to sterilize solids, liquids, excipient packages, and anything that is heat-resistant and can be penetrated by hot steam. From the simple portable high pressure pot to the current fully automatic high-pressure steam type, the functional performance of high-pressure steam sterilizers has changed a lot.

2. Cassette sterilizer

The cassette sterilizer has a built-in steam generator. It heats the heating tube first, and then injects water. The water quickly vaporizes into water vapor and flows into the cavity for sterilization. After sterilization, it is exhausted through positive pressure for drying. The sterilization time is short. It is a sterilization equipment for precision and expensive instruments in various operating rooms.

3. Pulse vacuum autoclave

It is mainly used in medical treatment, such as stomatology, ophthalmology, various operating rooms, supply rooms (large capacity), implantable devices, auxiliary material packages, etc. By repeatedly evacuating the cold air in the cavity, and then introducing steam to make the steam distribute more evenly, so it is especially suitable for complex-structured surgical instruments or auxiliary material packages, which can achieve more thorough sterilization.
