    Author: Babb JR, Phelps M, Downs J, Ayliffe GA.
    Journal: Sterile World; 1983 Apr; 5(2):5. PubMed ID: 10261351.
    Abstract:
    Ethylene oxide gas can be used under controlled conditions to sterilize heat and moisture sensitive articles, particularly those which cannot be steam sterilized or immersed in disinfectants. The ethylene oxide process is essentially one of sterilization and all micro-organisms, including bacterial spores, are destroyed.
