ETHYLENE OXIDE (EO/ETO) STERILIZATION PROCESS. This is one of the most effective sterilization process at low temperature, and has more tan 60 years of existence in the medical and pharmaceutical fields. Nowadays, the ethylene oxide sterilization process (EO/ETO) has been developed until reaching a high level of performance and efficiency.
