Can boiled water be used to disinfect tableware?

Many people already have a fixed habit of scalding and disinfecting tableware with boiling water before eating out. So can this really play a role in disinfection and sterilization? 'For tableware, high temperature boiling is indeed the most common way of disinfection, and many germs can be killed by high temperature disinfection. 'However, boiling water scalds the Bowl, but can not achieve such an effect, can only remove the dust on the disinfection tableware. High temperature disinfection to really achieve the effect must have two conditions, one is the role of the temperature, the other is the role of the time. Generally speaking, most of pathogenic Escherichia coli, salmonella, Vibrio cholerae, etc. need to undergo high temperature action of 100 ℃ 1- 3 minutes or 80 degrees Celsius Heating for 10 minutes to die. Therefore, scalding the bowl with boiling water before eating can only kill a few microorganisms. Boiling, circulating steam or using infrared to disinfect the cupboard are effective methods. 'Of course, scalding with boiling water can at least wash away the floating dust or oil stains in the Bowl, which is not a bad thing. ', As for wiping with napkins, it does not play a role in disinfection. There are still many people who think that wet tissue has disinfection ingredients, so it is used to wipe the bowl. This is actually wrong. Wet wipes contain a variety of chemical components such as emollients, which may not be accessible. Wiping bowls with them increases the potential safety hazard. Based on the above, scalding with boiling water can only remove dust. As for sterilization, it is a psychological comfort to oneself.
