Supercritical Carbon DioxideâBased Sterilization of Decellularized Heart Valves

Supercritical Carbon DioxideâBased Sterilization of Decellularized Heart Valves

Summary: Sterilization of grafts is essential. Supercritical carbon dioxide, electrolyzed water, gamma radiation, ethanol-peracetic acid, and hydrogen peroxide techniques were compared for impact on sterility and mechanical integrity of porcine decellularized aortic valves. Ethanol-peracetic acidâ a...
