The present invention relates to a device for isolating and cleaning contaminated components comprising a chamber, an entrance door through which components to be isolated and cleaned are introducible into the chamber, means configured to deliver washing solution into the chamber and onto the components to be cleaned, a drying system configured to dry the chamber as well as its content, wherein the device further comprises an exhaust filter system attached to the air exhaust of the chamber, the exhaust filter system comprising a pipe, at least one filter and a blower, the exhaust filter system being configured to be able to bring the chamber under a pressure lower than atmospheric pressure by means of the blower all the time the chamber is closed. The present invention also relates to a corresponding method for isolating and cleaning contaminated components with the aforementioned device.

A process for the preparation of a sterilized ceramic body including or essentially consisting of stabilized zirconia of a defined colour, including the steps of: providing a ceramic primary body including or essentially consisting of stabilized zirconia of a first colour A, and sterilizing the primary body using radiation sterilization whereby the primary body undergoes a colour change to a colour B. The process includes the further step of irradiating the sterilized primary body with electromagnetic radiation of at least one wavelength lying in the wavelength band ranging from 150 nm to 700 nm to induce an at least partial reversal of the colour change to obtain a colour C of the sterilized ceramic body, the colour C complying with the following requirements in the CIELAB colour space: L* being from 54 to 95, a* being from −15 to 15 and b* being from −15 to 15.

A system and method for systematic, controlled removal of sterile products from blister packs for use during surgery is disclosed.

A terminally sterilized medical procedure kit includes a recovered item and a new item packaged together as a single stock keeping unit. A method for processing at least a portion of a first medical procedure kit includes the steps of receiving a recoverable item of the first kit, performing a processing operation on the recoverable item, providing a new item, combining the recoverable item and the new item in a second kit, and terminally sterilizing the second kit. A method for recovering at least a portion of a terminally sterilized medical procedure kit includes the steps of purchasing a recoverable item of the first kit from an owner and receiving the recoverable item by the purchaser.

A reactive oxygen species formulation is provided by preparing a peracid mixture in an activated pH range including mixing alkaline hydrogen peroxide solution with acyl donor in molar proportions with an excess of the acyl donor to hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide and acyl donor are reacted to produce a peracid mixture comprising no more than a small quantity of hydrogen peroxide, and pH is adjusted as needed to initially prepare the formulation in the activated pH range. Water treatment with the reactive oxygen species formulation facilitates formation and separation of solids removable during clarification, and which may be followed by a second treatment with the reactive oxygen species formulation for antimicrobial treatment of clarified water.

Methods of determining the dose of UVC light delivered to a sample comprising a low optical transmission complex fluid are provided. Also provided are methods of inactivation of an organism, such as a spore, a bacteria or a virus, in a sample comprising dose of UVC light delivered to a sample comprising a low optical transmission complex fluid.

The invention relates to a method for treating a nanofibrillar cellulose hydrogel, wherein the method comprises the steps of: providing a nanofibrillar cellulose hydrogel, wherein the nanofibrillar cellulose is oxidized nanofibrillar cellulose, wherein the oxidation has been carried out through N-oxyl mediated catalytic oxidation of cellulose-based raw material, and has at most 50 μmol of aldehyde groups per gram of dry nanofibrillar cellulose; and subjecting the nanofibrillar cellulose hydrogel to a heat treatment.

A multiple-bore solute cartridge carrier 10) for use in a sterile fluid delivery system. The carrier includes a rotary housing (12) adapted for connection to the sterile fluid delivery system. The rotary housing has one or more bores (30) configured to receive a solute cartridge. The rotary housing, when connected to the sterile fluid delivery system, is selectively rotatable to facilitate creation of a desired sterile solution when sterile water from the fluid delivery system is flowed through the solute cartridge.

A method and device are described that reduce the amount of pathogens in a liquid and/or to mitigate the growth of pathogens. Utilizing the method or device, liquid product is subjected to an 8 Bar or greater pressure drop. The liquid product is then heated to increase its temperature by at least 10° C. while it is in the droplet phase and/or after being collected into a liquid volume.
