Results are presented from experimental and theoretical studies of the sterilization of medical products by the plasmas of dc glow discharges in different gas media. The sterilization efficiency is obtained as a function of discharge parameters. The plasma composition in discharges in N[sub 2] and O[sub 2] is investigated under the operating conditions of a plasma sterilizer. It is shown that free surfaces of medical products are sterilized primarily by UV radiation from the discharge plasma, while an important role in sterilization of products with complicated shapes is played by such chemically active particles as oxygen atoms and electronically excited O[sub 2] molecules. © 2000 MAIK “Nauka / Interperiodica”.
