Sterilisation

Medistri’s Application Areas for Steam Sterilisation

Steam sterilisation is a highly effective and reliable method of decontamination. By exposing products to saturated steam at high temperatures—typically between 121°C and 134°C—steam sterilisation ensures the elimination of harmful microorganisms. The process involves three critical phases: conditioning, exposure, and exhaust, with exposure times ranging from 3 to 15 minutes, depending on the specific product requirements.

Medistri’s Application Areas for EO Sterilisation

EO Sterilisation is particularly beneficial for products that cannot be subjected to high heat or moisture, making it an ideal solution for many modern medical devices and pharmaceutical products. Here’s how it works in practice for different types of products that are in their definitive package.

Sterilisation

Sterilisation for Pharmaceutical Vials

A pharmaceutical vial is a small container, typically made of glass or plastic, used to store and protect liquid, powder, or lyophilized (freeze-dried) pharmaceutical substances. These vials must be sterilized and sealed with a rubber stopper or a screw-on cap, often secured by a metal crimp or seal. They are commonly used for injectable medications, vaccines, or other substances requiring precise dosing. Vials ensure the contents are protected from contamination and maintain sterility until use.

EO Sterilization and Treatment: A Comparative Overview

Ethylene oxide (also known as EO or EtO) is a low temperature gaseous process widely used to sterilize a variety of healthcare products, such as single-use medical devices. Through the use of a vacuum-based process, EO can efficiently penetrate surfaces of most medical devices and its lower temperature makes it an ideal process for a wide variety of materials.

Mixed Load Sterilisation Validation

Mixed Load Sterilisation Validation is crucial for ensuring the efficacy and safety of medical devices. It verifies that sterilisation processes effectively treat diverse loads containing various materials and configurations, meeting stringent regulatory standards. Medistri excels in providing robust validation services, ensuring compliance and reliability in sterilisation practices.

Sterilisation

Mixed Load Cycles

Ensuring the safety and effectiveness of medical instruments is crucial in healthcare. One advanced method for achieving this is through Mixed Load Cycles, where different types of instruments are sterilized together in a single cycle. This approach not only saves time but also improves operational efficiency in medical settings.

Steam Sterilisation Technology

Steam sterilisation technology exposes your products with saturated steam under pressure. Steam enhances the ability of heat to kill microorganisms by reducing the time and temperature required to denature or coagulate proteins in the microorganisms. Steam sterilisation cycles generally have three phases including conditioning, exposure and exhaust. Steam sterilisation is a simple but very effective method of decontamination.
