Sterilization And Disinfection
Sterilization :-
It is the process of destruction of all micro - organisms ( pathogenic and non-pathogenic ) include their spores.
1.Mechanical Method -
Scrubbing -
It is useful in :
- Cleaning of hands.
- Cleaning of hands.
- Scrubbing of hands.
- Cleaning of floor.
- Cleaning of O.T.
Filtration -
It is useful in :
- Disinfection of water.
- Disinfection of laboratory liquids.
- Disinfection of culture media.
2.Physical Method-
Radiations -
Types of radiation :
- Ultraviolet radiations.
- Ionizing radiations.
- X-rays
Uses -
- Prevention of spread of air bore infections.
- Suppression of surface growing , modules.
- Suppression of organisms in packed materials.
- Sterilization of suture , plastic tubing , disposable syringes.
Ultrasonic -
These in mechanical vibrations . It is useful in :
- Destruction of bacteria.
- Coagulation of protein solution.
- Dishwasher.
Heat -
- Moist Heat
- Dry Heat
Moist Heat -
Moist heat has been four types :
1.Boiling
2.Steam
3. Tyndallization
4. Pasteurization
Boiling -
It is useful in :
- Sterilization of needles and instruments, syringes, contaminated dishes etc.
- Destruction of pathogenic bacteria.
- Destruction of fungi.
- Destruction of viruses.
- Destruction of some spores.
Steam -
- Free flowing steam.
- Steam under pressure.
- High vacuum sterilize.
Tyndallization -
It is the instrument sterilization. It include applications of steam for thirty minutes on there successive days. It is useful in :
- Sterilization of vaccine and serum .
- Sterilization of culture media .
Pasteurization -
It is useful in :
- Sterilization of milk.
- Sterilization of serum and vaccine.
- Sterilization of endoscopy.
Methods -
1.High temperature short time.
2.Ultra high temperature.
3. Holder method.
Dry Heat -
Example - Hot air oven.
Hot Air Oven :
It requires temperature of 160' c for 1-2 hrs.It is useful in:
- Sterilization of glass ware , test tube, syringes, needles.
- Sterilization of powder, bottles, pipettes, flask, petri dishes.
- Sterilization of gauze,dressing.
- Sterilization of scalpel,scissors .
3.Chemical Method -
Antiseptics -
These are chemical substances which prevent the growth of bacteria.
Disinfection -
These are chemical substance which kill bacteria.
