Abstract
Efficiency of Atmospheric Pressure Nitrogen Gas Remote Plasma Sterilization and the Clarification of Sterilization Major Factors
Highlights
Several papers have been published on gas plasma sterilization [14, 11, 19, 20]
It is seen that sterilization can be completed in 240 min, 150 min and 120 min at 55°C, 65°C and 75°C, respectively. These results indicate that 75°C is the best temperature for sterilization because an increase of 20°C from 55°C to 75°C resulted in a sterilization time that was half as long, and it is expected that the target materials including the biological indicator (BI) are tolerant to this temperature
The results indicate that sterilization efficiency coincides with the tendency of peroxynitrite anion radical (ONOO -) formation; peroxynitrite anion radicals (ONOO -) are thought to be the major factor of nitrogen gas plasma sterilization
Summary
Several papers have been published on gas plasma sterilization [14, 11, 19, 20]. The definition of sterilization can be found in the book published from NOVA [11]. Water vapor supply locations and in Hideharu Shintani et al, (2015) Efficiency of Atmospheric Pressure Nitrogen Gas Remote Plasma Sterilization and the Clarification of Sterilization Major Factors.
