What is an "autoclave"?
An autoclave is a device used to disinfect medical equipment and supplies using steam and heat at very high pressures. It works by heating water to create high-pressure steam, which effectively kills bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms on items placed inside. Autoclaves are essential in medical and laboratory settings to ensure that surgical instruments, laboratory glassware, and other materials are thoroughly disinfected and safe for use in procedures and experiments.
