Terminal Sterilization

Terminal sterilization plays a critical role in ensuring that medical devices are free from microorganisms, including bacterial spores, to achieve a Sterility Assurance Level of 10-6 . This process is essential for supporting infection prevention efforts and reducing the risk of healthcare- associated infections. For heat- and moisture-sensitive medical devices, low-temperature sterilization is a preferred solution for effective instrument reprocessing, ensuring microbial inactivation while preserving device integrity.
