Heat sensitive compounds like antibodies seras and hormones can be sterilized by means of:
Correct answer: C. Membrane filters
- A. Radiations
- B. Chemicals
- C. Membrane filters
- D. Dry heat
Explanation
Compounds such as antibiotics, seras, hormones, etc are heat sensitive. Heat-sensitive compounds can be sterilized by membrane filters. The sterilization process is a process that involves physical agents used to control bacteria and other microorganisms. A membrane filter is a type of filter that is used to remove particles and microorganisms from a liquid or gas. It consists of a thin, porous membrane that is placed in a filter holder. The liquid or gas is passed through the membrane, which traps the particles and microorganisms and allows the clean fluid to pass through. Membrane filters are commonly used in microbiology to remove bacteria and other microorganisms from liquids such as water or culture media. They are also used in industrial applications to remove impurities from liquids or gases. The pore size of the membrane can be adjusted to allow for the removal of particles of different sizes.
