Reference Data
Sterilizing operation using disposal bag for biochemically dangerous object
①
Open the opening of sterilization bag so the vapor can be easily entered into it.
Secure the bag with a wire rack so it should not fall down during operation.
②
The height of bag should be about two-thirds of chamber. If it is too high, the
vapor cannot be easily entered into it, or it blocks the vapor outlet at the upper
part of chamber, which may cause insufficient sterilization.
③
The preset temperature should be the upper temperature limit of bag to be used.
④
The preset time varies depending on the quality and quantity of sterile samples. Refer to the
following data for the preset time.
