Described below are some possible remediation options

  • Sterilization: an “absolute” term meaning a complete destruction, inactivation or removal of all living microorganisms. Generally achieved by
    physical means, such as heat, ionizing radiation and filtration. Heat (>73 C) plus ethylene oxide has also been used.
  • Autoclave: (high temperature at 121 C and high steam pressure 15 pounds per sq. Inch or 1 kg/cm) is often used in laboratory, health care or industrial settings.
  • Disinfection: The elimination and destruction of microorganisms, which may allow some resistant organisms to survive (such as bacterial spores).
  • Biocidal is a killing action: bacteriostatic (or stasis) prevents growth of bacteria: antiseptic opposes sepsis or putrefaction either by killing
    microorganisms or by preventing their growth.
