The advantages and disadvantages of three forms of dry heat sterilization are discussed. In addition a fourth method, consisting of heating by infrared rays in vacuo, is described. This method is particularly suitable for instruments used in the operating theatre, since it can replace an autoclave where a supply of steam is not available. Recommended times and temperatures for dry heat sterilization are detailed, and are related to the thermal death point of Cl. tetani. The dangers of recontamination during the cooling process are discussed.
本文讨论了三种干热灭菌方式的优缺点。此外,还介绍了第四种方法,即在真空中通过红外线加热。这种方法特别适用于手术室使用的器械,因为在没有蒸汽供应的情况下,它可以替代高压灭菌器。文中详细列出了干热灭菌的推荐时间和温度,并与破伤风杆菌的热致死点相关。同时,还讨论了冷却过程中再次污染的风险。
