## Abstract __Objective__: In 2005, the Taiwan Institute of Occupational Safety and Health started an on‐site consulting program for the medical supplies manufacturing industry, which use ethylene oxide (EO) as a sterilant, with the goal of enhancing occupational hygiene practices and controlling E
## Abstract Medical devices that are sterilized with ethylene oxide (EtO) retain small quantities of EtO residuals, which may cause negative systemic and local irritating effects, and must be accurately quantified to ensure non‐toxicity. The goal of this round‐robin study is to investigate the capa
An alternate method for determining residual ethylene oxide (EtO) in medical devices was compared with the aqueous extraction method suggested by the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). Residual EtO was extracted from EtO-sterilized samples of acrylic polymer (XT250-30
## Abstract Medical devices sterilized by ethylene oxide (EtO) retain trace quantities of EtO residuals, which may irritate patients' tissue. Reliably quantifying trace level EtO residuals in small medical devices requires an extremely sensitive analytical method. In this research, a Doehlert unifo
