Can you autoclave a perchlorate solution?

07 February 2022 0 10K Report

I am planning on preparing a TSB media with added calcium perchlorate and was wondering if it is safe to autoclave for sterilization since I read it is potentially combustable (125 deg for 30 min). I haven't seen anything specific in the literature so if someone could point me in the right direction that would be great.
