Hydrogen peroxide is a known antimicrobial agent that oxidizes key cellular components within microorganisms, thereby destroying them. A low-temperature gaseous plasma sterilizer is� an apparatus that uses vaporized hydrogen peroxide gas plasma to sterilize heat- and moisture-sensitive medical instruments and devices.� The process involves injecting hydrogen peroxide vapor into a chamber, then applying an electrical field to create gas plasma.� This plasma generates� microbicidal free radicals� that disrupt cellular components of microorganisms, killing them effectively.� The process leaves behind harmless byproducts, water and oxygen, and is suitable for delicate equipment that cannot withstand high temperatures or humidity. Sterilization typically occurs at a temperature of less than 56°C with process times of around 25 to 70 minutes depending upon cycle type.
