Autoclaves are specialized pressure vessels used to sterilize equipment and materials by subjecting them to high-pressure saturated steam at temperatures of 121°C (250°F) or higher. This process effectively destroys harmful microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and spores, ensuring the safety and sterility of medical, laboratory, and industrial instruments. Autoclaves are widely utilized in healthcare settings, research laboratories, and industries requiring stringent sterilization protocols. They are designed to handle various materials such as surgical instruments, glassware, liquids, and media, providing reliable and efficient sterilization solutions.
