What is Ethylene oxide used for?

What are methods of soil sterilization?
Historically, a common method described in literature was "to sow salt." In practice this does not actually work, as salt is soluable and easily carried away by rain. Soil is partially sterlized through the use of herbicides, such as Agent Orange or Round Up. Covering patches of soil with black plastic is another method of sterilization that does not require adding chemicals. Herbicides are often sprayed along road ways and side walks to prevent the roots of trees and brush from cracking the concrete or pavement. Of course, covering land with asphalt is another effective "sterilization" technique. Finally, if one can afford the energy, running soil through an autoclave will sterilize it. This might be done for certain biology experiments in university laboratories. Soil is not typically autoclaved for regular agricultural use.
Why might a warm summer rain carry more pollutants than a cold summer rain?
because on a warm summer rain, there are more UV rays carry many chemicals and when it rain, those chemicals will be carried by the rain and go to the ground, and less on cold summer rain because, when its cold some chemicals in the atmosphere are still or not moving and some becomes solid, now when it rain, the rain water does carry some pollutants but will not affect the place -WYETH C.

What is cold sterilization?
Cold sterilization is a process in which sterilization is carry out at low temperature with the help of chemicals, radiations, membranes and all other means excluding high temperature. Ionizing radiation such as x-rays,gamma rays and cosmic rays, cause no appreciable increase in temperature in this method ,it is referred as cold sterilization

What are the three instrument classifications that are used to determine the method of sterilization?
Sterilization can be accomplished by heat (as in the autoclave), chemicals (as with glutaraldehyde) or radiation. Your average outpatient office uses heat or chemical sterilization.
Is cold sterilization solution corrosive?
Many products are used for cold sterilisation (i.e. liquid chimical disinfection), with different properties
Is radiation sterelization also called as cold sterelization?
Cold sterilization is not radiation sterilization. Cold sterilization is a chemical sterilization. * Cold (chemical) sterilization used properly. Effective and proper use of cold sterilization is dependent on many factors including: ** The use of chemicals classified as "sterilants". Those classified only as "disinfectants" are not adequate. ** The physical properties of the item being sterilized. It must be relatively smooth, impervious to moisture, and be of a shape that permits all surfaces to be exposed to the sterilant. ** Adequate exposure to all surfaces, both interior and exterior. Tubing must be completely filled and the materials to be sterilized must be clean and arranged in the sterilant to assure total immersion. The items being sterilized must be exposed to the sterilant for the prescribed period of time. ** Use of efficacious solutions: The sterilant solution must be clean and fresh. Most sterilants come in solutions consisting of two parts that when added together form what is referred to as an "activated" solution. The shelf life of activated solutions is indicated in the instructions for commercial products. Generally, this is from one to four weeks. ** Rinse instruments, implants, and tubing (both inside and out) should be rinsed with sterile saline or sterile water prior to use to avoid tissue damage.
What are the methods of sterilization used in a dental office?
Cold sterilization, where the instruments are put in a chemical solution, and it takes around 12 hours for them to become sterilized. Heated sterilization, which is done in an autoclave, under high heat and high pressure. It only takes a few minutes for the instruments to be sterilized.
