Chapter 9, Problem 1CM
Summary Introduction
To fill:
The applications of moist heat for controlling the microorganisms.
Concept introduction:
The term aseptic condition refers to the completely devoid of microbes. The sterilization, disinfectant, sanitization, and radiation are some of the physical and chemical methods to get rid of microbes. Sterilization by heat is one of the key factors used for eradicating the microbes. The heat has the capability to denature the microbe’s proteins, alter its cell wall, and cause irreversible damages to its
