Abstract
|
|
|
|
For the bulk sterilization, there are two traditional methods of autoclaving and exposure to ethylene oxide. However, autoclaving involves high temperatures and pressures and ethylene oxide is chemically highly reactive, so these methods are radiation, we have carried out sterility and safety tests on some medical products irradiated at varying radiation levels. The results obtained were as follows ; 1) The minimum dose of radiation for the sterilization of medical products was 2.5 Mrad. 2) The radiosterilization dose varied depending on the initial population of microorganisms. 3) In transfusion sets, a level of radiation of 2.5Mrad at room temperature produced no pyrogen and they remained bacteriologically sterile.
