Abstract
Sterlisation as well as disinfection is the key factor of preventing infection control. Both the processes i.e. sterlisation as well as disinfection helps in removing the pathogens. Endospore is the only key factor to distinguish between the two techniques. In the process of disinfection only pathogens are removed but endospores didn’t removed from the process of disinfection. While the process which includes the destruction of endospores as well as the pathogens is known as sterlisation.
