What is Decontamination Method 2 for blood or other infectious materials on items?

Cleaning then sterilizing
Disinfecting then cleaning
Sanitizing then disinfecting
Washing then sterilizing

The correct answer is: Cleaning then sterilizing

Decontamination Method 2 for blood or other infectious materials on items is cleaning first, then sterilizing. This is different from the other options because cleaning is always done before the process of removing any contaminants, and sterilization is the most effective way to remove all forms of microorganisms. Disinfecting, sanitizing, and washing may not be as effective in completely removing all infectious materials. Therefore, A is the most appropriate choice for decontaminating items with blood or other infectious materials.
