Stainless Steel Type 316Ti

Allegheny Ludlum Type 316Ti (UNS S31635) is a titanium stabilized version of Type 316 molybdenum-bearing austenitic stainless steel. It is also known as DIN/EN designation No. 1.4571. The Type 316 alloys are more resistant to general corrosion and pitting/crevice corrosion than the conventional chromium-nickel austenitic stainless steels such as Type 304. They also offer higher creep, stress-ru...

Infectivity of scrapie prions bound to a stainless steel surface.

BACKGROUND The transmissible agent of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is not readily destroyed by conventional sterilization and transmissions by surgical instruments have been reported. Decontamination studies have been carried out thus far on solutions or suspensions of the agent and may not reflect the behavior of surface-bound infectivity. MATERIALS AND METHODS As a model for contaminated...

Factors Affecting Adhesion of Staphylococcus epidermidis to Stainless Steel Surface

In the food industry, microbial adhesion to equipment surfaces and subsequent development of biofilm are very serious issues because of potential to cause cross-contamination, which leads to lowered shelf-life, food spoilage, and transmission of disease [1-4]. Adhesion and subsequent growth on surfaces is a common strategy of bacteria for survival in both natural habitats and man-made environme...
