Choosing a Soil Sterilisation Autoclave. By: Priorclave. Categories: Lab Design Lab Practices. Soil sterilisation is notoriously hard on autoclaves. In part, this is simply because the soil sterilisation process is inherently challenging. Soil is heavy, dense, and hard to permeate with steam and heat. It really puts an autoclave to the test.

DetailsThe answer is yes – and it's as simple as sterilizing your soil. Sterilizing soil involves using a chemical or physical process to kill harmful microorganisms. One popular method is to use chlorine bleach, which can be mixed with water and applied to the soil to kill bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms.
DetailsAutoclaving is the most common sterilisation method for soils, due to the ease of access to an autoclave in many laboratories ( Trevors, 1996; Berns et al., 2008 ), and has been used in OECD 106-related research ( Xu et al., 2009; Estevez et al., 2014; Mrozik and Stefańska, 2014; Zhang et al., 2013 ).
