Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cold sterilization is performed using compounds such as ethylene oxide. These chemicals are able to kill off bacteria and other microorganisms at low temperatures without damaging heat-sensitive materials. Dry ice and high-pressure chambers are not typically used for sterilization, and exceptionally low temperatures may not be effective for killing all types of microorganisms.
