Efficient and gentle sterilization with beta rays
Sterilization is an indispensable process to ensure the safety and effectiveness of products. By using ionizing radiation, such as beta or gamma rays, pathogenic germs, molds and spores on products are destroyed safely and within a short time. The radiation damages the DNA of microorganisms, so that they lose their reproductive capacity and become harmless.
Advantages of sterilization with beta beams:
- Fast process times – sterilization takes place within seconds
- Material-friendly – Reduced thermal and chemical stress
- Immediate availability – no extra waiting times after treatment
- Environmentally friendly – no chemical residues or additives
Typical Applications:
- In vitro diagnostics: pipettes, sample container, test kits
- Pharmaceutical primary packaging: blisters, foils, bags
- and many more!
