A few dozen amps through the nail for a while will make it red hot, at which point you can pretty much forget about organic life surviving on the surface of the thing. Car batteries are fairly traditional for this, but I wouldn't recommend it unless you know the battery can handle the abuse, seeing as it can explode if it doesn't. Unlike a scalpel, whose edge is actually sharp and needs to stay sharp, a nail is pretty blunt and won't deform appreciably if you're careful. Yes, this solution beats an autoclave, even destroying prions (which an autoclave won't do reliably). IWYW, — Aswad.
