Gas plasma hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) sterilization

Abstract

Sterilization is a critical process and its effectiveness is vital. For this reason, the most important feature to be considered when determining the correct and effective sterilization method is determining the appropriate sterilization management for the appropriate material and ensuring the continuity. The inadequacy of High Temperature Sterilization methods has created an urge for the development of alternative methods. With the Gas Plasma Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) sterilization method, effective and reliable sterilization performance is provided for materials with lumen, and sterilization efficiency can be evaluated with lumen tests. The lumen materials used in these tests and sterilized medical devices (endoscope, bronshoscpe, etc.) are simulated. Inner diameter of Sterrad 100NX and Sterrad 100S sterilization devices min. Single channel stainless steel lumens with 0.7 mm and maximum length of 500 mm were tested using different numbers of loads. It is difficult for the sterilization agent to reach the hollow part of the device and compared to other methods, Gas Plasma Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) Sterilization is preferred because of its effectiveness. In addition to these advantages, Gas Plasma Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) St
