The apparatus, which is designated as an 381 Baeteriolo^loalTetliuiquc. REFERENCE HANDBOOK OF THE .MEDICAL Fig. .5068.—Chamberland Aiitnclave tor Steril-izing by Steam Under Pressure. (Novy.) autoclave, is shown in Fig. 5068. It consists of a strongboilor, in the bottom of which a small quantity of wateris placed. The articles to be steamed are placed in awire hasUet, wliieli is set on the bottom of the boiler.„. The litl is closed with a rubber gasket ami securely held in jjlaceby tlmmb screws. Inasmuch asthe amount of aqueous vapor in agiven space as well as the temperature, in the ease of contiued steam,is greater than with flow-ing steam, it follows thatthe autoclave is consider-ably more eflicient. Thussteam at 130° C., underpressure, will destroy in-stantaneously sporeswhich would resist flow-ing steam at 100° for liveor si.\ hours. The culture media canbe sterilized by a singlelieutiug for fifteen tothirty mintites at 110° h i g h e r temperatureshould be avoid-ed, as it tends toalter tlie reac-tion of the me-dia. Glass ap-paratus, tilters,rubber, etc., canbe sterilized b
