Sterilisation
The bone prostheses are steam sterilised (STEAM) – in accordance with the requirements of EN ISO 17665-1 and FP IX (2011).
Due to the unwound surface the Codubix® bone prostheses are steam sterilised (according to the standard the term “moist heat” is used).
The application of this technique to obtain a sterile product provides safety of the product because of the lack of potential harmful factors contained in the sterilising medium.
The steam sterilisation allows also for the immediate release of the product for sale without any additional period to wait – which is required during the sterilisation with ethylene oxide.
