Why are there oxidation or spots on my W & H Steriliser instruments?
- CChristopher GomezJul 27, 2025
Oxidation or spots may appear on instruments due to several reasons. It could be due to the use of poor-quality water or water containing chemical substances; in this case, drain both water tanks and use water of good quality. Another reason may be organic or chemical residues on the instruments; thus, clean, rinse, and dry instruments before placing them in the sterilizer. Also, contact between instruments of different materials may cause oxidation; ensure that instruments of different materials do not touch; place them on different trays or cassettes or bag/wrap them.
