Answer:

Is used to prevent contamination from pathogens.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pathogens are disease causing organisms. In a clinical setting or even in the laboratory, a person has to use the strictest means of disease prevention and even re-infection (for patients). Aseptic technique is important to protect yourself, other workers and patients from infection and from the spread of pathogens. It effectively maximizes the presence of pathogens and totally eliminate them. This is possible from simple measures like using your PPE which must all be sterile. From your gloves, gowns etc to your equipments used during any procedure. Also disinfection of your work place is important too either by concurrent disinfection or intermittent disinfection.
