Tabletop Autoclave NTTA-101 – Compact Laboratory Steam Sterilization Equipment


What Is a Tabletop Autoclave?

A tabletop autoclave is a compact steam sterilizer that uses pressurized saturated steam at 121–134°C to sterilize laboratory instruments, glassware, culture media, liquids, and small biohazardous waste. It ensures accurate contamination control in laboratories, clinics, and research facilities while occupying minimal bench space.
