radiation:release of high speed subatomic particles or waves of electromagnetic energy from atoms
ionizing:form of radiation w wavelengths shorter than 1 nm
ultraviolet:wavelengths that are greater than 1 nm, create ions by ejecting electrons from atoms
phenolic: compound derived from phenol molecules that have been chemically modified to denature proteins and disrupt cell membranes in wide variety of pathogens
halogens: 1 of the 4 very reactive, nonmetalic chemical elements
tincture: solution of antimicrobial chemicals in alcohol
alcohol: intermediate level disinfectant that denatures proteins and disrupt cell membranes
heavy metals: high molecular weight metals such as arsenic that are used as an antimicrobial agent
aldehyde: compound containing terminal -CHO groups
quat: detergent antimicrobial that is harmless to humans
sterilization: The eradication of all organisms, including bacterial endospores and viruses, not prions, in or on an object
disinfectant: the use of physical or chemical agents to inhibit or destroy microrganisms on inanimate objects
degerming: the removal of microbes from a surface by scrubbing
sanitization: the process of disinfecting surfaces and utensils used by the public
antisepsis: the inhibition or killing of microorganisms on the skin or tissue by the use of a chemical antiseptic
aseptic: characteristic of an enviroment or procedure that is free of contamination by pathogens
biocide: a chemical capable of killing all organisms
germacide: chemical agent that destroys pathogenic microorganisms in general
static: to remain relatively unchanged
stasis: indication inhibition; no complete destruction
cidal: destruction of a type of organism
moistheat: commonly used to disinfect, sanitize, sterilize and pasteurize
autoclave: device that uses heat under pressure to sterilize chemicals and objects that cannot tolerate moist heat
dryheat: sterilization used for substances that cannot be sterilized by boiling or with steam
pasteurization: the use of heat to kill pathogens and reduce the number of spoilage microorganisms in food and beverages
refrigeration: halts the growth of most pathogens
desiccation: inhibition of microbial growth by drying
lyophilization: remova of water from a frozen culture or other substance by means of vacuum pressure
filtration: the passage of air or liquid through a material that traps and removes microbes
osmoticpressure: the pressure exerted across a selectively permeable membrane by the solutes in a solution on 1 side of the membrane
