Ethylene oxide is an exceptionally efficient sterilizing agent. It acts as a bactericide, a sporicide and a viricide. It features a highly favourable diffusion coefficient and therefore can sterilize thermo sensitive or very delicate materials that other methods cannot.
Despite restrictions, EO still delivers advantages unmatched by other systems for hospital single use products. Leading companies continue to rely on ethylene oxide for terminal sterilization of syringes, probes, catheters, pacemakers and similar devices. The complex design of these medical devices makes penetrability of the sterilizing agent one of the most critical parameters.
