Medical Device Sterilization

According to the Federal Drug Administration (FDA), over 50% of all medical devices used in the United States are sterilized with ethylene oxide. Pallets are filled with thousands of medical devices and then are mass sterilized using ethylene oxide - ETO - to permeate the instruments and kill any harmful bacteria. ETO poses a significant risk to both sterilization and distribution since ethylene oxide may continue to off-gas from the medical devices for weeks following because of the high concentrations used throughout the sterilization process. Active, continuous monitoring for ETO takes the guesswork out of creating a safe workplace, reducing risks and providing next-level protection for your teams and your business.
