Detailed explanation-1: -Steam sterilization is generally carried out at temperatures between 121°C (250°F) and 134°C (273°F), under 15–30 psi (1.0–2.0 bar) pressure, between 10 and 60 min, depending upon the material and the type of organism to be inactivated. Table 4.3 gives typical steam sterilization conditions.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sterilisations of media and fermenters are done with an Autoclaving, streaming, and passing through which media. The synthetic media that are sterilised in due to short on time with a crude media needs more on times of sterilisation.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are various methods considered for the sterilization of fermenter inlet air. These include filtration, heat, irradiation, washing with sterilizing chemicals, and electrostatic precipitation.

Detailed explanation-4: -Explanation: The structural components of the fermenter involved in aeration and agitation are Impeller or agitator, Baffles, Stirrer glands and bearing, and the sparger or the aeration system.
