Superheated Steam Can Rapidly Inactivate Bacteria, But Manual Operation of Commercial Units Resulted in Limited Efficacy During Dry Surface Sanitization

Although bench-scale studies have shown that superheated steam is effective for microbial inactivation on surfaces, commercial systems in the hands of human operators have not been evaluated. The first aim of this study was to characterize the temperature of stainless-steel surfaces treated with a c...
