The complete process time amounts to 6 seconds. Using the common reference germs for hydrogen peroxide sterilisation processes, endospores of different strains of bacillus subtilis and bacillus stearothermophilus, the Dry Sterilisation Process easily achieves a germ reduction of 106...108 (log6...log8) in count reduction tests and also in end point tests.
The sterilised items leave the sterilisation chamber in a completely dry state. Only the surface temperature of the items is slightly increased by a few degrees (10...15K) during the sterilisation process. Therefore, the process is particularly useful for the sterilisation of heat sensitive items like plastic bottles. It is also useful for applications which require a high germ reduction and short process times.

Famous quotes containing the word results:
“Intellectual despair results in neither weakness nor dreams, but in violence.... It is only a matter of knowing how to give vent to one’s rage; whether one only wants to wander like madmen around prisons, or whether one wants to overturn them.”
—Georges Bataille (1897–1962)
“Silence is to all creatures thus attacked the only means of salvation; it fatigues the Cossack charges of the envious, the enemy’s savage ruses; it results in a cruising and complete victory.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
“Life and language are alike sacred. Homicide and verbicide—that is, violent treatment of a word with fatal results to its legitimate meaning, which is its life—are alike forbidden.”
