Greetings.

A short while back, I posted a request for feedback of ideas 
regarding the use of microwave technology in the lab to 
sterilize glassware. I have gotten some good responses via 
e-mail.  

However, most of the responses talked about the temperatures 
for killing spores and bacteria, in the less then 300 def. F.
range.   I'm talking about blasting the little peckers in to
space by high wattage (+1000) and thorough coverage (i.e. 
glassware in motion on 3D gimbel).  Will it work ? How do test
for sterilization completeness ? 

Thanks !
