I am interested in conducting an aspergillus inactivation study using an household microwave since I do not have access to a laboratory microwave.
Dear Adewunmi Giwa ,
welcome!
In order to use the household microwave oven for such biological applications you have to compare between the ovens. There are performance specifications for such ovens.
such as:
- The power of the oven
- The power control in the oven. This factor is very important and if the power of the oven is fully controllable then you can use it.
May be the achieved temperature range is also must be considered.
Best wishes
This is not a direct answer but may help you to solve your question.
You can also consult an electrical engineer for this matter!
