Objective:To analyze the operation principle and property of medical drying sterilizer. The common faults and repair method for automatic controlling and pneumatic system of drying sterilizer are studied. Methods:Taking Austar drying sterilizer as example, based on the dry-heat sterilization principle, the operating process and using notes are described. Based on the operating experience, normal alarm processing, failure recovery and maintenance methods are given. Results:under proper and systemic maintenance, the Austar drying sterilizer can keep normal operating condition for a long time without any accident. Conclusion:as a kind of familiar sterilization equipment, medical drying sterilizer can hold a good operating state for long time with scheduled maintenance, periodic inspection and timely repair.

The importance of structural variants(SVs)for human phenotypes and diseases is now recognized.Although a variety of SV detection platforms and strategies that vary in sensitivity and specificity have been developed,few benchmarking procedures are available to confidently assess their performances in biological and clinical research.To facilitate the validation and application of these SV detection approaches,we established an Asian reference material by characterizing the genome of an Epstein-Barr virus(EBV)-immortalized B lymphocyte line along with identified benchmark regions and high-confidence SV calls.We established a high-confidence SV callset with 8938 SVs by integrating four alignment-based SV callers,including 109x Pacific Biosciences(PacBio)continuous long reads(CLRs),22 x PacBio circular consensus sequencing(CCS)reads,104x Oxford Nanopore Technologies(ONT)long reads,and 114×Bionano optical mapping plat-form,and one de novo assembly-based SV caller using CCS reads.A total of 544 randomly selected SVs were validated by PCR amplification and Sanger sequencing,demonstrating the robustness of our SV calls.Combining trio-binning-based haplotype assemblies,we established an SV benchmark for identifying false negatives and false positives by constructing the continuous high-confidence regions(CHCRs),which covered 1.46 gigabase pairs(Gb)and 6882 SVs supported by at least one diploid haplotype assembly.Establishing high-confidence SV calls for a benchmark sample that has been characterized by multiple technologies provides a valuable resource for investigating SVs in human biology,disease,and clinical research.
