Research Abstract |
Adiabatic Expansion Sterilizer in a moment is developed by using combination works between a taper seal valve and link-motion mechanism, which is able to run over 380,000MPa/s at 200 MPa of decompression velocity. Mechanism of present high pressure sterilization on Bacillus stearotermophilus IFO 12550 spore was physical destruction of the spore coat by adiabatic expansion of water permeated through the spore coat under pressure. Water volume of permeated through the spore coat under pressure is rate-determining on spore disintegration, which was influenced by temperature. Sterilization was promoted over 75゚C.The spore of Bacillus stearothermophilus IFO 12550 was almost ruptured at 100 MPa. D value under 200 MPa compression is 17 min at 75゚C,11 min at 85゚C and 6 min at 95゚C respectively, when B.stearothermophilus spore IFO 12550 (D100゚C values=3000 min) are treated by 20 min. Spore coats are broken to brittle fracture exactly when balk strain velocity of water exceeds in 42.4/s (at decompression of '00 MPa).
