Why Should You Attend:
Pharmaceutical products and medical devices are required to be sterile to be used in patients. Sterilization of these crucial products can be done in several ways depending on the characteristics of the product being sterilized. There are four typical ways a product can be sterilized. These are sterilization by Ethylene Oxide, Gamma irradiation, Steam and Pressure, and filtration. Knowing the characteristics of your product will determine what method will be used. This webinar will go over the four methods of sterilization and why one method would be chosen over the other.

Topic Background:
Medical devices and Pharmaceutical products are used by patients who may be compromised in terms of developing an infection if an opportunistic microorganism is introduced into the patient’s body. Sterilizing pharmaceutical products and medical devices prevents this from occurring, by using various methods (heat, pressure, radiation, etc.) to destroy the microorganisms. In order for a medical device or pharmaceutical product to be approved there must be an assurance of its sterility.
