Masks are a very important item in the epidemic of corona virus. Before going out, it is very important to wear a mask when visiting someone. It is as important to wear a mask during an epidemic as it is to sanitize it. People use soap and water to sanitize the mask, but did you know that masks can also be sanitized in an electric cooker.
One study revealed that the N95 mask can be disinfected if kept in an electric cooker in a dry heat for 50 minutes. The study also found that the N95 mask's filter did not suffer any damage during this time.
After this study, an American researcher says that there are many different methods of disinfecting any mask. However most mask filters deteriorate after mask sanitization. He says the mask can also be sanitized in an electric cooker and its filter is safe.
The researcher who sanitized the mask in the e-cooker says that the dry heat meets all the three criteria. He says it does not require any special chemicals or substances. Researchers said they wanted something that was readily available in people's homes so they invented the option of an electric cooker.
What is a process?
Studies have shown that if the N95 mask is kept inside the cooker at 100 સે C for 50 minutes, the mask can be made bacteria free.
