The other standard steam sterilization temperature, used in a prevacuum sterilizer, is

  • A.121 degrees Celsius for about four minutes
  • B.150 degrees Celsius for about thirty minutes
  • C.132 degrees Celsius for about four minutes
  • D.110 degrees Celsius for about sixty minutes

Answer: C

A prevacuum cycle removes air first so steam penetrates at once, allowing a higher temperature and a much shorter exposure. The trade is between time and temperature: the hotter the saturated steam, the less of it is needed.
