Successful cleaning of medical devices and instruments requires both careful selection of materials and consistent monitoring of the procedures used to process them. Chemical characterization of residues that may be adsorbed onto surfaces and mechanical testing to ensure functionality should provide sufficient information to evaluate the potential success of cleaned and disinfected/sterilized medical devices. By using a combination of chemical and mechanical analysis techniques, both manufacturing and decontamination processes can be optimized to insure a safe and effective product. Choosing the optimal testing protocols, interpreting ...
