[QUOTE="Waltercat, post: 4209357, member: 52025"] Prions=bad stuff. Instruments used in brain surgeries are supposed to be destroyed and not reused. Autoclaves won't kill prions. from an article; Ensuring neurosurgical tools are free of prions is difficult chiefly because prions resist standard sterilization procedures. To disinfect metal instruments, hospitals put them in [URL='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autoclave']an autoclave[/URL] and steam-heat them to 121 degrees Celsius for about 15 minutes. That’s far more than what’s needed to wipe out pathogens such as bacteria and viruses, which succumb to mere boiling temperatures in about one minute. [B]Although autoclaving greatly weakens prions, the process may not entirely wipe out these malevolent proteins.[/B] [/QUOTE]
