Eliminating Cold Air Trapping to Achieve Validated Sterilization in the BKM-P24II Autoclave

In benchtop steam sterilization, a pressure gauge reading of 0.14 MPa (approximately 20 psi) does not guarantee that the load inside a chamber has reached the required 121°C or 126°C sterilization temperature. In gravity-displacement units like the BKM-P24II Portable Autoclave, the presence of residual air within the 24-liter stainless steel chamber is the primary cause […]
