Abstract
Sterilizing properties of formaldehyde in anhydrous methanol and formaldehyde in water were compared. Formaldehyde in methanol achieved sterilization in 24 hr. Formaldehyde in water was found to sterilize in shorter periods of time and to have a longer shelf life than formaldehyde in methanol.Entities:
