When choosing a sterilization process, it is important to look at all the factors involved and make the best choice in terms of material compatibility, room temperature, fast turnaround, no residuals, and ease of operation. When using steam-based sterilization processes, a high amount of heat and moisture generate harsh conditions for sensitive components. In contrast, Peracetic Acid Vapor works at room temperature, and also provides the highest sterility assurance levels.
