Ethylene Oxide (EO) has played an important role in sterilization of medical devices, where steam cannot be used for more than 50 years. But due to selfish gains, some companies have started spreading rumors, that EO is banned in western countries, like USA and Europe. This is absolutely false. US FDA, EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) and the OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration have not banned the use of Ethylene Oxide. They have banned the combination of EO with refrigeration gases like CFC and HCFC. However, using 100% EO is not at all restricted anywhere in the US and also in India. EO is safe like any other sterilant. Ethylene Oxide sterilizers are now widely preferred in all hospitals and we in Cistron provide a complete range of EO sterilizers, with different sizes to suit any budget and application.
