There are four primary variables used in this process. These are temperature, humidity, the time and gas concentration. In this process, a product which needs to be sterilized kept in a vacuum container. Then the product is exposed to ethylene oxide gas. Ethylene oxide gas is an alkylating agent that can disrupt the DNA of bacteria, micro-organisms thus stop them to reproduce in the product. Thus the Ethylene oxide gas is used to sterilize the healthcare products and instruments.
This is the major phase in which the product is exposed to a sterilizing agent say ethylene oxide under a controlled temperature, pressure and humidity. The process can be used to sterilize multiple devices simultaneously.
