A novel sterilization process compliant with the most demanding medical regulations
Understand what's going on during the sterilization process
The SterOx System is compliant with norms relative to the microbial effectiveness of the sterilization process:
An overkill approach was used on the most resistant microorganism, based upon an initial concentration of at least 10e6 CFU (colony-forming units) of the recommended test organisms. The dynamics of Geobacillus stearothermophilus inactivation follows first order kinetics against the dose with an R2 value (coefficient of determination) of more than 0.8.
Geobacillus stearothermophilus was chosen to be the reference microorganism and biological indicator for the sterilization process as it represents the greatest challenge, and as it demonstrates a linear lethality relation to the critical process parameter “dose” (ozone concentration by the time).
