Supercritical Carbon Dioxide - Sterilization of Biomedical Materials

Sterilization of Biomedical Materials

Recent studies have proved SC-CO2 is an effective alternative for terminal sterilization of biological materials and medical devices. Moreover, this process is gentle, as the morphology, ultrastructure, and protein profiles of inactivated microbes are maintained.

Famous quotes containing the word materials:

    “What is most interesting and valuable in it, however, is not the materials for the history of Pontiac, or Braddock, or the Northwest, which it furnishes; not the annals of the country, but the natural facts, or perennials, which are ever without date. When out of history the truth shall be extracted, it will have shed its dates like withered leaves.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
