PBS can be safely autoclaved. It only contains inorganic salts, which are quite heat-stable. AFAIK media can not be autoclaved, because there are many different (organic) compounds in them, which would be lost because of the heating. One way you can save money, is to prepare media from powder, sterile filter large amounts (like 20 l or so) with one bottletop filter and store in 1 l sterile bottles. You have to add (sterile) glutamine and FBS (and whatever else you want) when you open the bottle.
To properly autoclave equipment and instruments for sterilization, follow these steps: Place the items in autoclave-safe bags or containers. Ensure the autoclave is set to the appropriate temperature and pressure for sterilization. Run the autoclave cycle for the recommended time based on the type of items being sterilized. Allow the items to cool before removing them from the autoclave. Store the sterilized items in a clean, dry area until ready for use.
Autoclave paper is a special type of paper that is used in sterilization processes such as in autoclaves. It is designed to withstand high temperatures and pressure during the sterilization cycle while allowing steam to penetrate to sterilize the contents inside. Autoclave paper helps maintain the sterility of the items being sterilized.
No. Media sterilization requires 121C (250F) at 15psi for 15 minutes. It is generally done in an autoclave, but can be done in a pressure cooker. Tyndallization is another alternative, which is just boiling for 15 minutes three days in a row, and incubating at a warm temperature in between. It is not 100% effective. Instruments can be sterilized in an oven. Dry heat sterilization generally requires 160C (320F) for 2 hours or 170C (340F) for 1 hour.
An autoclave can be effectively used for sterilization by subjecting items to high pressure and steam at a specific temperature for a set amount of time. This process kills bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms, ensuring that the items are thoroughly sterilized.
An autoclave uses high pressure and steam to kill bacteria and other microorganisms on equipment and instruments, ensuring they are sterilized. The steam penetrates the items, reaching high temperatures that effectively eliminate any harmful pathogens.

Depends on the type of media, and the amount. Usually 20-30min. You can do more then that, but be careful if the media has sugar (it will caramelize).

Dressing forceps are meant to be sterilized via autoclave. If that an autoclave is unavailable, at least 70% isopropyl alcohol soak will help kill some bacteria.
When instruments are sterilized in an autoclave, the temperature must typically be maintained at 121 degrees Celsius (250 degrees Fahrenheit) for a minimum of 15-30 minutes, depending on the load size and type of materials being sterilized. This high temperature, combined with steam under pressure, effectively kills bacteria, viruses, and spores. For certain applications, higher temperatures and longer exposure times may be required. Proper validation of the sterilization process is essential to ensure effectiveness.
The function of a thermometer in an autoclave is to measure and display the temperature inside the autoclave chamber. This is important to ensure that the sterilization process reaches the required temperature for a specified period of time in order to effectively kill any microorganisms present on the instruments being sterilized.
The principle of an autoclave is to use high pressure and steam to sterilize equipment and kill bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms. The autoclave operates by heating water to create steam under pressure, which penetrates sterilization items, effectively killing any microbes present. The high temperature and pressure inside the autoclave ensure that the items are effectively sterilized.
To use a Wilmot Castle autoclave sterilizer, ensure it is plugged in and water levels are adequate. Place items inside the autoclave, close the door securely, set the appropriate temperature and pressure, and start the sterilization cycle. Once the cycle is complete, allow the autoclave to cool before opening the door and removing the sterilized items.
Yes, because bioplast can be sterilized in an autoclave.
