The high-temperature and short-time sterilization by microwave heating with a continuous
microwave sterilizer (MWS) was evaluated. The evaluation were performed with respect …

A new microwave continuous sterilizer (MWS) for applying microwave dielectric heating as
an alternative to an autoclave was developed. The developmental objectives of the MWS …

For the purpose of selecting an appropriate biological indicator for evaluation of the effects
of microwave heating sterilization, we examined aerobic bacterial spores to determine …

Due to different dielectric loss factors between glass and cell tissue, microwaves should
primarily heat the microorganisms without intensive heating of the vials. A time and energy …

A program for validating the microwave sterilizer, which is a new type of sterilizer, was
established and implemented. This program includes the following tests specific to …

According to the superiority sterilization, a specially-designed microwave disinfector using
high-power microwave energy was made. A series of sterilizing experiments have been …

This paper reviews recent research and development on microwave sterilization, including
the experiments of sterilization effects, the influence of microwave radiating on the media …

There is currently increased interest in the use of alternatives to autoclaved culture media, in
order to maintain the properties of the media, while saving energy and time. In this study, we …

Different culture media in different volumes were exposed to microwave (MW) irradiation for
2, 3 and 4 minutes to investigate the ability of MW to destroy microorganisms and compared …

The sterilization and depyrogenation of 10-ml glass serum vials by a plasma, initiated by a
laser and coupled with a microwave field was investigated. Spores of Bacillus subtilis and …
