Principle of multiple sterilization methods

Sterilization is the process of killing or removing all pathogenic and non-pathogenic microorganisms in the environment. Sterilization is necessary conditions to obtain pure culture and food, biological, pharmaceutical, medical, scientific research in the field of the necessary technology. Sterilization items mainly relates to clothing, accessories, metal instruments, culture medium, glassware, etc. 

According to the characteristics and applicable conditions of sterilization items, it can be divided into a variety of sterilization methods, thus deriving a variety of sterilization equipment.

Moist heat sterilization：Using high temperature and high pressure water vapor as a medium to denature or solidify proteins and cause microbial death is a commonly used sterilization method in biological laboratories and pharmaceutical preparations.

Autoclave is an essential part of the decontamination and sterilization process performed by sterile processing departments in healthcare facilities/laboratory/pharmaceutical industry.Our INNOVA autoclaves have three types(Table, vertical, horizontal)and lots of different models can be selected according to customers' different requirements and budgets. Our sterilizers can be increased drying capabilities with a variety of drying options. Innova offers the compact vacuum steam sterilizers to maximize department productivity and optimize workflow. Pulsating vacuum sterilizer, through three times of pre-vacuum can make air removal more thorough, the effect is more reliable.  

Dry heat sterilization: The technique of killing bacteria or spores in a dry environment by means of high temperatures. Suitable for: intolerant to hot and humid environment, such as dry powder, grease, equipment, etc.

Radiation sterilization: An effective method of using ionizing radiation to kill microorganisms on most substances. Suitable for: items that cannot withstand high temperature environment, sterilization of food at room temperature or low temperature can maintain food quality while achieving no residue.

Filtration and sterilization method: The use of physical retention method to remove bacteria in the liquid or air, so as to achieve the purpose of asepsis. Suitable for: liquid and gas, such as cell culture to the cell device ventilator connected with a sterilizing air filter.

Chemical sterilization: The method of killing microorganisms by directly acting on them with chemicals can be divided into gas sterilization and liquid sterilization. Gas sterilization method adopts gas sterilization agent such as ethylene oxide for sterilization; Liquid sterilization method uses liquid sterilization agent for sterilization，such as hydrogen peroxide. Items that are not suitable for physical sterilization can be chemically sterilized

INNOVA low-temperature plasma hydrogen peroxide sterilizergenerates plasma through the action of the high-frequency electric field in the sterilization chamber under low temperature and vacuum state, in which the active substances chemically react with the protein and nucleic acid in the microorganism, destroying the microorganism and disturbing the growth of the microorganism Survival function, and then use hydrogen peroxide as a medium to act on microbial cells to further kill microorganisms.
