      Bryan ThomasSep 15, 2025
      If instruments are rusting after sterilization in your Tuttnauer Laboratory Equipment, first determine if it's true rust by using a pencil eraser to remove the brown spot. If there is no pitting, the instrument is just dirty. Use distilled water for sterilizing and ensure dissimilar metals are not in contact with each other.
