I don't know Michelle. To be honest, when we had our house flooded after a heavy rain, all our pots, pans, plastic goods were in the direct level of the flood water. We had to assume the water was compromised and replaced everything (granted we had insurance for that as it paid for a new kitchen too), but if it is a teflon coated pan I would replace it. If its not coated and has no scratches then I guess a good sterilisation would be fine?
