<p>A process for sterilizing heat-labile material using steam in an autoclave. In the first phase of the process, air in the autoclave is replaced by steam. This step also preheats the autoclave. In the second phase of the process, the material is sterilized in the presence of moisture. In the third phase of the process, steam is removed from the autoclave and the material is dried. The steam is supplied in such an overheated condition in the first phase that no condensation occurs in this phase. Using a process according to the present invention allows heat-labile materials to be sterilized without loss of mechanical properties.</p> |
