This document provides a brief history of sterilization from ancient times to modern advances. It discusses key figures like Semmelweis, Lister, Pasteur and their contributions to understanding infection and developing sterilization techniques like antisepsis, asepsis and the autoclave. The document also outlines the development of various sterilization methods and technologies over time, from boiling and steam to chemicals, radiation and plasma sterilization. It notes standards and classifications established for classifying medical devices based on sterilization needs.
The autoclave is a device used to sterilize equipment and supplies using high pressure steam. It works by sealing items inside a chamber and raising the temperature above 100°C using pressurized steam, which is able to kill microorganisms like bacteria and viruses. Autoclaves have been used in healthcare settings since the late 19th century to safely sterilize surgical and dental tools. Modern autoclaves still function on these same principles, using precise temperature, pressure, and timing to eliminate all forms of microbial life that could cause infection. They must be properly maintained and cleaned regularly to ensure effective and safe sterilization.
The autoclave is a piece of equipment used to sterilize objects through high pressure, temperature, and steam. It works by placing instruments in a chamber and circulating steam at over 120°C for 15 minutes to kill all microorganisms and spores. There are two cycles - gravity which is fast and used for dry goods, and liquid which slowly releases steam to prevent boiling sterilized liquids. Common materials sterilized are glassware, surgical tools, and waste while incompatible items include solvents, chlorides, and non-stainless steel.
This document discusses inelastic impression materials, focusing on zinc oxide eugenol (ZOE) impression paste. It describes the composition, setting reaction, properties, uses, and clinical implications of ZOE paste. It also summarizes several research studies related to ZOE paste, including factors that influence setting time, allergic reactions, efficacy of disinfection methods, techniques for implant impressions and bite registration, and the effects of tray design and storage on impression accuracy and stability.

This document discusses sterilization methods used in dentistry, focusing on autoclaves. It describes how autoclaves use steam under pressure and high heat to sterilize instruments in 15-20 minutes. Two main types are discussed: downward displacement and vacuum. Proper use requires loading, pressurizing to 15 PSI and heating to 121 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes to effectively kill microbes. Autoclaves provide rapid and effective sterilization but items must be heat tolerant and safety precautions like protective equipment are important when using the high pressure and temperature equipment.
1. Sterilization eliminates all microorganisms including bacteria, viruses and endospores. Disinfection only eliminates pathogenic microorganisms.
2. Heat is the most common sterilization method and can be applied through moist heat like autoclaving or dry heat like oven heating. Chemical sterilization uses agents like phenols, alcohols, halogens, heavy metals and aldehydes to disrupt microbial membranes and proteins.
3. Other sterilization methods include filtration, irradiation using gamma rays, x-rays or UV light, and gaseous agents like ethylene oxide and hydrogen peroxide which penetrate materials to kill microbes.

Condensation silicone was the first type of silicone impression material developed. It sets via a condensation reaction at room temperature, producing an alcohol byproduct. While condensation silicones have lower cost and sufficient working time, their dimensional stability is compromised over time due to the volatile byproduct. More advanced addition silicone and polyether materials provide better accuracy due to less shrinkage.
A complete denture is a removable dental prosthesis that replaces the entire dentition and associated structures of the maxilla and mandible. It is composed of artificial teeth attached to a denture base resin. Denture base resins can be classified into heat polymerizable polymers, autopolymerizable polymers, thermoplastic blanks, light activated materials, and microwave cured materials. Heat activated denture base resin requires a curing cycle involving processing in a water bath at temperatures ranging from 74°C to 100°C to control polymerization. Chemically activated resins polymerize at room temperature and are used for making temporary crowns/FPDs and denture repairs. Properties of denture base resins include biocompat

history of microbiology by Dr dayeetaa mallick.pdfdmdisha23
The history of microbiology is the first seminar I presented and the topic was given to me by my HOD. I referred to The history of Medicine book by Jaypee publishers, Microbe Hunters, Paniker's Microbiology 10th edition, ncbi, britannica, and numerous ppts I found online done by diff ppl. There were minor corrections done after this version with a slide for Hippocrates contribution and the springing of new fields of microbiology after the Golden Era.
Microbiology is the study of microscopic organisms. Key developments in the field include Anton van Leeuwenhoek first observing microorganisms in the 1670s using microscopes. In the late 19th century, Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch played major roles in establishing that specific microbes cause infectious diseases. Koch developed techniques for isolating and growing pure cultures of bacteria, and formulated criteria for identifying microbes as pathogens. Advances in microscopy and molecular biology have expanded understanding of microbes and enabled new diagnostic and treatment approaches.
The document provides a history of hygiene practices from ancient times to modern day. It discusses the following key points in 3 sentences:
The earliest hygiene rules date back to around 1500 BC in Hindu texts, with religious rules around hygiene developing in Judaism and Islam. In ancient Greece, people would clean themselves by rubbing oils and sand on their skin before scraping it off, while Romans enjoyed elaborate public baths that became a pastime. Major developments in personal, food, and home hygiene increased in the 19th century during the Industrial Revolution, including advances in food preservation methods like pasteurization and refrigeration as well as the emergence of public baths and private bathrooms.

History of microbiology- Pharmaceutical MicrobiologySanchit Dhankhar
Scientific study of organisms (both eukaryotes and prokaryotes) and agents too small to be seen clearly by the unaided eye.
Microbiology is the study of microorganisms / microbes which is visible only with a microscope.
Derived from the Greek word “mikros” - ‘small’ and “bios” - ‘life’.
The diverse group of organisms includes algae, archae, bacteria, cyanobacteria, fungi, protozoa, viruses.
Most of the microorganisms are harmless.
99% are good. Eg: Cynobacteria (blue green algae)
1% are bad. Eg: Pathogens
The belief in the spontaneous generation of life from nonliving matter was introduced by Aristotle, who lived around 350 BC.
According to Aristotle, it was:
“readily observable that aphids arise from the dew which falls on plants, fleas from putrid matter, mice from dirty hay.”
This belief remained unchallenged for more than 2000 years.
Formation of life from non living things- ABIOGENESIS.
Aristotle suggested that flies and maggots developed from decaying organic matter.
Epicuris suggested that worms and other animals originated from soil and manure by the action of sun and rain.
Theory of Spontaneous generation was disproved by Francesco Redi,Lazzaro Spallanzani,Louis Pasteur and Theodore Schwann.They argued that life originated from “pre existing life only”-BIOGENESIS.
Francesco Redi took 3 containers filled with meat particles.1st was kept unclosed,2nd covered with paper and 3rd was covered with cork or guaze.After inhibition the 1st container had maggot being produced because flies were attracted by the odour of the meat and they laid eggs after some days developed to maggots.2nd and 3rd container did not contain maggots.

Key figures in the early history of microbiology include Anton van Leeuwenhoek, who first observed microbes in the 1670s, and Louis Pasteur, who disproved spontaneous generation in the 1860s and developed the germ theory of disease. Pasteur also invented pasteurization and developed several vaccines. Robert Koch further developed techniques for isolating and culturing bacteria and established criteria for identifying pathogens. Major discoveries in the late 19th century included the identification of bacteria that cause diseases such as tuberculosis, diphtheria, and gonorrhea. The development of bacteriophages, antibiotics like
The document provides a history of microbiology from its early discoveries to modern developments. It describes key figures like van Leeuwenhoek who observed microorganisms under microscopes. Later, scientists like Pasteur and Koch helped disprove spontaneous generation and establish germ theory through experiments. Major milestones include the development of vaccines, antibiotics, and an understanding of microbial roles in disease, genetics, and biochemistry. Modern microbiology involves applications like genomics, synthetic biology, and contributions to fields such as medicine and biotechnology.
The document provides an introduction to the history and scope of pharmaceutical microbiology. It discusses how microbiology emerged from early theories of spontaneous generation being disproven through experiments showing microbes are present everywhere and can be transmitted. Key figures who advanced the field include Van Leeuwenhoek who first observed microbes under the microscope, Pasteur who disproved spontaneous generation and showed microbes cause fermentation and spoilage, Koch who established criteria to link microbes to specific diseases, and Fleming who discovered the antibiotic penicillin. The document concludes with the scope of microbiology encompassing both basic research on microbes and applied areas like disease treatment, food and industrial production, and medical uses.
The document summarizes disinfection methods used prior to the 19th century discovery of pathogenic microorganisms. It classifies early disinfection into three categories: chemical (using sulphur, mercury, copper, alkalis and acids), physical (heating, fumigation, filtration), and biological (burial). Early disinfection methods, while empirical, were still effective at controlling some animal diseases without understanding the causal mechanisms of disease.
Gustav Neuber is considered the father of asepsis. In 1884, he established a clinic that practiced strict rules of cleanliness and isolation to ensure a sterile environment. This included requiring staff to wash before entering operating rooms, isolating rooms from other areas, and using dry surgical gowns. Neuber published about his techniques in 1886, setting the standard for aseptic practice. Asepsis aims to prevent infection by eliminating contaminants through sterilization of instruments and materials, strict hygiene practices like hand washing, and maintaining sterile operating conditions. It differs from antisepsis which kills microbes within the body. Modern asepsis relies on sterilization methods like autoclaving, antibiotics, and hy
This document provides a brief history of microbiology, summarizing key figures and discoveries. It describes how Anton van Leeuwenhoek was the first to observe bacteria under a microscope in 1683. Louis Pasteur coined the term "microbiology" and made breakthroughs in vaccinations and disproving spontaneous generation. Robert Koch developed techniques for culturing pure bacteria and isolated the bacteria that cause tuberculosis, cholera, and anthrax. Paul Ehrlich introduced the concept of chemotherapy with the discovery of Salvarsan to treat syphilis. Ignaz Semmelweis demonstrated the importance of handwashing in preventing childbed fever. Many pioneers in microbiology have been recognized with Nobel Prizes for their seminal contributions

3. Ancient Times
● In ancient times,
demons and evil
spirits were thought to
be the cause of
pestilence and
infection.
● Methods involving
witchcraft and magic
were used to drive
them away.
4. Egypt (3,000 BCE)
● Antiseptics such as pitch or tar, resins and
aromatics were widely used in embalming
bodies even before they had written language.
● Observed the antiseptic value of dryness
resulting from the use of certain chemicals such
as niter and common salt.
● Became so skillful in the art of embalming that
mummies of thousands of years old are still in
good condition.
5. Mosaic Law (circa 1450 BCE)
● First to prescribe a system of purification by fire
● Developed the first system for the purification of
infected premises described in books of
Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy
● The stern mandates given by the Mosaic law
formed the basis of the first sanitary code and
the various systems of purification of the
succeeding ages.
6. Greece (550 BCE)
● Greek Infantry men
known as hoplite fought
naked if they could not
afford armor
● Observed that pieces of
clothing carried into a
wound by a penetrating
sword or spear point
were more likely to
cause infection.
7. Ancient Greece
● The fumes of burning
chemicals were also
used by the ancients
for deodorizing and
disinfecting purposes.
● Of early importance
was sulfur, apparently
the first of the useful
chemicals to be
mentioned.
In the Odyssey, the
following passage may
be found:
To the nurse Eurycleia
then said he:
“Bring cleansing sulfur,
aged dame, to me
And fire, that I may
purify the hall.”
8. Hippocrates of Cos (460-377 BCE)

medicine from
philosophy
● Disproved the idea
that disease was
punishment for sin.
● Advocated irrigation
of wounds with wine
or boiled water,
foreshadowing
asepsis.
9. Galen (130-200 CE)
A Greek who practiced medicine in Rome
● Boiled instruments
used in caring for
wounded Roman
gladiators.
● Most distinguished
physician after
Hippocrates
10. Galen (130-200 CE)
A Greek who practiced medicine in Rome
● His writings and those of Hippocrates
were the established authority for
medicine for many centuries.
11. The Middle Ages (900 - 1500 CE)
● Progress from the
standpoint of
noteworthy
contributions having a
direct bearing on the
development of the
art of sterilization was
virtually in a standstill.
● Filth, pestilence, and
the plague ravaged all
Europe.
12. The Middle Ages (900 - 1500 CE)
● Attempts were made to combat the pestilence
in hospitals and infected houses using:
− cleansing solutions
− aeration
− the smoke of burning straw
− fumes of vinegar, sulfur, antimony, and arsenic.
15. Basics of steam under pressure
● Pressure cookers work by creating a tight seal
between pot and lid.
● This seal traps the air inside the pot as it gets
heated.
● As the air gets heated, it expands but because
it is trapped, pressure increases.
● As pressure increases, so does the boiling point
of the water inside.
16. Basics of steam under pressure 2
● An increase of about 15 pounds per square inch
(psi) above standard atmospheric pressure (a
typical pressure-cooker setting) boosts the
water boiling point from its normal 212°F
(100°C) to about 250°F (121°C).
● The superheated steam trapped in the cooker
circulates around the items inside quickly
penetrating them, or in the case of food, quickly
cooking it.
18. Dr. Johann Julius Walbaum (1758)
German Physician
● The earliest recorded instance of the use of
surgical glove
● Gloves used to deliver babies
− Formed from the intestines of a sheep
− (Rubber had not yet been discovered)

● Canning meats and vegetables in jars sealed
with pitch then boiling them.
● He wins prize offered by Napoleon for a way to
prevent military food supplies from spoiling
21. Ignaz Semmelweis (1847)
Hungarian obstetrician
● Advocated the value
of hand washing and
fingernail scrubbing
● Used antiseptic
chlorinated lime
solution
● Proposed avoiding
decaying organic
matter
22. Semmelweis reflex
● Empirical evidence without theoretical
acceptance
● Automatic dismissal or rejection of scientific
information "without thought, inspection or
experiment"
● Despite various publications of results where
hand-washing reduced mortality to below 1%,
antiseptic practice earned widespread
acceptance only years after his death, when
Louis Pasteur confirmed the germ theory
23. Louis Pasteur (1862)
Father of modern Microbiology
● Proposed the Germ
theory of disease
● Develops disinfection
and sterilization
processes
● Pasteurization –
process to slow food
spoilage
24. Joseph Lister (1867)
English physician
● Credited as father of
antiseptic surgery
● Reduced the mortality
rate of his patients by
using a carbolic
solution spray as he
operated
25. Antiseptic Surgery
● Used in the wound,
on the articles in
contact with the
wound and on the
hands of the
operating team.
Carbolic acid, phenol
27. John Tyndall (1876)
English Physicist
● Discovered heat resistant bacteria
● Based on this discovery, he later originated the
method of fractional sterilization by
discontinuous (intermittent) heating.
− Tyndallisation:
● Subjects are heated and cooled repeatedly to shock and
kill spores
● Later found unreliable for resistant organisms
28. Robert Koch (1881)
German Physician
● The research of Koch
and his associates on
the disinfecting
properties of steam
and hot air mark the
beginning of the
science of disinfection
and sterilization.
● They devised the first
non-pressure flowing
steam sterilizer.
29. Sterilization by boiling instituted (1881)
● Everything used during an operation, including
linens, dressings, and gowns was boiled,
although some surgeons still believed Lister’s
method to be adequate.
● Lethal to most vegetative bacteria and viruses
− Later found ineffective against prions and many
bacterial and fungal spores
30. Ernst von Bergmann (1885)
German (Latvian) physician
● First used the steam
sterilizer for the
sterilization of surgical
instruments and
dressings.
● Marked beginning of
aseptic surgery
31. Gustav Neuber (1886)
German Surgeon
● First modern aseptic
operating room
● Introduced mercury
chloride in it to clean
his apron.
● Advocated scrubbing
the furniture with
disinfectant and
sterilizing everything
in contact with the
wounds
The end of the operating theater
32. William Stuart Halsted (1889)
American Surgeon
● Introduced surgical
glove at Johns
Hopkins Hospital
● To remedy complaints
of dermatitis caused
by the strong
chemical disinfectants
used to perform hand
scrubs
33. First rigid instrument containers
● Originally made of stainless steel by Aesculap
in Germany.
● In the early 1900′s, responding to the needs of
the military hospitals and aid stations, Aesculap
manufactured chrome-plated containers for safe
transport of sterile instruments.
34. Rigid instrument containers
● Reusable textile filters were introduced in the
1930′s, replacing valves and sliding vents.
● Rubber gaskets were added shortly thereafter
to ensure a proper seal between the lid and the
bottom.
● In the 1960′s anodized aluminum replaces
stainless steel, providing optimal heat retention
and distribution.
● The lightweight construction also allows for
easy handling and stacking.
35. Adoption of Sterilization Advances
● During the period of 1885 to 1900 the Germans
made many notable contributions to the
principles governing steam sterilization and
chemical disinfection.
● Widespread application of these principles,
including their adaptation to sterilizing
equipment, did not, however, take place until
some thirty years later with the introduction of
the modern temperature-controlled sterilizer
- a product of American manufacturers.
36. Instrument Advances
● During the late 1800′s, surgical instrument
design was radically changed when antiseptic
and aseptic surgical techniques became the
norm.
● Newly instituted sterilization procedures called
for smooth instruments that could withstand
high heat and that could be disassembled
quickly to expose germ-harboring joints and
recesses.
37. Instrument Advances
● Ornate carved ivory
and wood handles
that decorated earlier
instruments were
eliminated.
● Also banished were
leather cases, lined
with silk or velvet
● Replaced by canvas
bags that could be
sterilized along
everything else.
38. Example of Sterilizers
● 1906 - Steam
sterilizers in use in a
laboratory preparing
tuberculosis serum in
Marburg, Germany.
39. Early type of hot air sterilizer
● Used in
bacteriological
laboratories at the
turn of the century.
● German designed, it
had a double wall,
and it attempted to
circulate gas-heated
hot air by gravity
convection.
Later proven ineffective for
resistant organisms.

controlled by
measurement by a
thermometer located
in the discharge outlet
at the bottom of the
chamber ●photo Getinge-Castle

42. Microwave radiation (1947)
● Percy Spencer, a
Raytheon engineer,
discovers that
microwave energy
could be used to cook
food, leading to
development of the
microwave oven.
43. Ozone disinfection (early 1900's)
● Use of Ozone for
potable water
treatment begins in
Europe.
● Presently, about 90%
of all European
municipal water
systems use Ozone
treatment.
44. Ethylene Oxide Gas (1940's)
● Used as a fumigant for
insects in the early
twentieth century,
ethylene oxide was
recognized as an
antibacterial agent
around 1929, when it
was used to sterilize
imported spices and furs.
● It has been employed as
a sterilizing agent in
industry and hospitals
since the 1940's.
45. Ionizing Radiation (1940's)
● Sterilization by
irradiation developed
thereafter.
● Used for commercial
sterilization of surgical
supplies.
● Cobalt-60 gamma
irradiation source
Blue light is radiation source.

51. Principles set the standards (1956)
● Principles and Methods of Sterilization in Health
Care Sciences by J.J. Perkins was published.
● This textbook established the standards and
methodology for processing and sterilization of
reusable medical devices.
52. Earle H Spaulding (1968)
American Physician
Proposed that how an object will be disinfected or sterilized
depended on the object’s intended use.
Spaulding's classification system:
● CRITICAL - objects which enter normally sterile tissue or
the vascular system or through which blood flows should
be sterile.
● SEMICRITICAL - objects that touch mucous
membranes or skin that is not intact require a
disinfection process (high-level disinfection [HLD])
that kills all microorganisms but high numbers of
bacterial spores.
● NONCRITICAL -objects that touch only intact skin
require low-level disinfection.
