Sterilization and disinfection are both crucial processes for controlling the spread of harmful microorganisms. Sterilization eliminates all forms of microbial life, including bacteria, viruses, and spores, while disinfection reduces the number of pathogenic microorganisms to a level that is considered safe for public health. Sterilization typically involves more rigorous methods, such as heat, chemicals, or radiation, while disinfection can often be achieved with disinfectants like bleach or alcohol.
Killing or removing all forms of microbial life (including endospores) in a material or an object.
Mainly due to: oxidation of cell component, denature proteins, nucleic acids, RNA and loss of membrane permeability.
Procedures performed in a way to prevent contamination with infectious microorganisms
Used to prevent contamination of surgical instruments, medical personnel, and the patient during surgery
Sanitization: Lowering of microbial counts to prevent transmission in public setting (e.g., restaurants & public rest rooms)
Degerming: Mechanical removal of microbes from limited area. e.g., Alcohol swab on skin, washing of hands with soap
Sepsis: Bacterial contamination
Antisepsis: Reduction or Inhibition of microbes found on LIVING TISSUE

Light Limited penetration DNA damage (thymine dimers) Radiation, UV Used in food preservation (less effective against fungi) Plasmolysis of contaminants Osmotic Pressure, Addition of salt or sugar Bacteriostatic Decreased chemical reaction rate Cold, Refrigeration Used for food & drug preservation; Does not necessarily kill so used for Long-term storage of bacterial cultures Desiccation and low temperature Cold, Lyophilization (also desiccation) Used for heat sensitive liquids Separation of bacteria from liquid (HEPA: from air) Filtration 170°C for 2 hours ; Used for glassware & instrument sterilization Oxidation & Denatures proteins Dry Heat, Hot air oven Used for inoculating loop Incineration of contaminants Dry Heat, Flaming Kills pathogens in food products Denatures proteins Moist Heat, Pasteurization 121°C at 15 p.s.i. for 30 min k ills everything Denatures proteins Moist Heat, Autoclaving Kills vegetative bacterial cells and viruses Endospores survive Denatures proteins Moist Heat, boiling Comments Mechanisms of Action Agent
