Cleaning
Definition of clean: the removal of all foreign material (for example,
soil or organic matter) from objects. Cleaning is normally
accomplished by washing with running water, mechanical action, or
enzymatic products.
Follow these steps to clean a part before sterilization:
1. Disassemble (separate all components).
2. Wash part in water and mild soap solution or enzymatic cleaner.
3. Rinse part thoroughly in clean running water for at least two
minutes and wipe dry or allow to air dry thoroughly.
4.
Inspect part after every cleaning. Replace damaged or worn parts.
Caution Always follow soap manufacturer’s instructions. Exposure
to a highly concentrated soap solution can shorten the useful life of
a part. Soap residue can cause blemishes or cracks, particularly on
parts exposed to elevated temperatures during sterilization.
Sterilizing
Definition of sterilize: The complete elimination or destruction of
all forms of microbial life. Sterilization is accomplished by physical
or chemical processes. Steam under pressure, dry heat, and low
temperature sterilization processes (such as ethylene oxide [EtO],
gas, or plasma sterilization) and liquid chemicals are the principal
sterilizing methods used.
