1.Test condititons: 60cmH2O/min, temperature of the water: 20℃
2.Size of particles counted: 3μm-25μm.
3.Size of particles counted: 3μm-25μm. a.Test conditions: challenge concentration108 CFU/g talc. and 30 min vibration time. b.The Least Significant Difference (LSD) for IBwhen
estimated using EN ISO 22610, was found to be 0.98 at the 95% confidence level. This is the minimum difference needed to distinguish between two materials thought to be different. Thus materials varying by more than 0.98 IBprobably are different. (98% confidence levels means that an observer would be correct 19 times out of 20 to accept these alternatives.)
c.For the purpose of EN13795 standard,log10CFU 2 means maximum 300CFU.
SSMMS FOR STERILIZATION WRAP APPLICATION
Application
Beautiful Nonwoven's sterilization wrap is intended for use in packaging of the medical products such as instrument sets, linen, etc. prior to sterilization. The fabric is suitable for use with steam and EtO and low-temperature plasma sterilization and compatible with indicator labels and tapes. The wraps are intended to allow sterilization of the enlosed medical devicas and also maintain sterility of such content until used.
Biocompatibility
SSMMS nonwoven fabric has been evaluated and tested for biocompatibility and the fabric shows no toxicity and no skin irritation and does not cause any allergic reaction.
