[Guidelines for disinfection and sterilization].
I described the contents of the 'Guidelines for Disinfection and Sterilization' published based on the new infection law that came into effect in April 1999. This guideline does not recommend formaldehyde fumigation, disinfectant fogging, or the use of cresol soaps, but recommends disinfection methods with heat(hot water, steam).
