Cell Culture Incubator with H2O2 Sterilization

SANYO Biomedical and Environmental Solutions (SANYO), a division of SANYO North America Corporation, offers the Sterisonic GxP, MCO-19AIC(UVH) Cell Culture Incubator. The new incubator uses a rapid H₂O₂ sterilization system—an under three hour decontamination process. The use of H₂O₂ sterilization in biological safety cabinets and barrier isolators is an alternative to ethylene oxide (EtO). The documented two-hour in situ H₂O₂ sequence quickly puts the fully sterilized Sterisonic GxP available and ready for use. EtO criteria outlined in ANSI/AAMI/ISO 14937 may be used as a validation guideline. All interior components and CO₂ sampling loop are sterilized in situ with no need for removal or separate autoclaving. Patented Active Background Contamination Control fights contamination while cell culture protocols are in process, while the patented SafeCell UV system scrubs interior airflow to destroy airborne and humidity pan surface contaminants.
