q2. what should be checked before loading instruments into a sterilizer? cleanliness and functionality instrument weight manufacturers expiration date room temperature

Explanation:

Before loading instruments into a sterilizer, ensuring cleanliness (to prevent contamination) and functionality (to guarantee proper operation post - sterilization) is crucial. Instrument weight is not a standard check for sterilization readiness. Manufacturer's expiration date typically pertains to packaged sterile items, not the instruments themselves before loading. Room temperature is not directly relevant to the pre - loading check of instruments for sterilization.

Answer:

Cleanliness and functionality
