I am also wondering how resilient these organisms are in the food matter we are heating up once it is heated up to certain temperatures. I guess that also means I am wondering how much of these organisms are airborne or are just living on the surfaces of the microwave without ever coming into contact with my food. Having said that, one thing I regularly do is just place a bowl of water in the microwave with a bit of lemon juice (optional). Put it on for a very long time, so that is boiling for several minutes. Then wipe off the surfaces.
