Microorganism
Controlling
by
Boiling
Water -
Here
the
objects
are
immersed
in
boiling
water.
The
moist
heat
sterilises
the
objects.
This
heat
penetrates
better
and
rapidly
than
dry
heat.
Since
temperature
is
100°C,
bacterial
spores
may
require
two
hours
exposure
for
destruction.
Moist
heat
kills
microorganisms
by
coagulating
and
denaturing
their
proteins.
The
object
must
be
completely
immersed
in
boiling
water.
