Abstract

길고 좁은 루멘 또는 확산 제한 영역을 갖는 의료 장치 및 유사한 기구를 과산화수소 증기 살균시키는 방법은 살균시키고자 하는 제품을 진공 또는 진공에 이은 플라즈마에 노출시키기 앞서 묽은 과산화수소 용액으로 예비처리시키는 단계를 포함한다. 이러한 방법으로 진공에 의해 야기된 용액의 증발시에도 과산화수소가 살균을 달성하기에 충분한 시간 동안 제품과 접촉되도록 해야 한다.

Description

과산화수소를 사용하는 예비처리를 이용하는 살균방법
본 내용은 요부공개 건이므로 전문내용을 수록하지 않았음
제1도는 본 발명의 살균방법 시험용 확산 제한 환경을 생성시키기 위한 좁은 개구만을 갖는 유리 튜브내에 배치된 접종시킨 스테인레스 강 블레이드를 함유하는 루멘의 단면도이다.
