If you are working in a lab in which an autoclave is not available, and you
are pressed for time, which would you choose to best sterilize your
equipment? Hot steam or hot air? Explain why you chose your answer.
Your Answer:
The best possible solution to sterilize equipment in the absence of an

the same effect.
