Method of low-temperature dry sterilization and apparatus therefor

摘要

A method of low temperature sterilization that with the use of a compact simple apparatus, is capable of safe, unfailing sterilization. There is provided an apparatus comprising gas cylinder (gas supply source)(8), high energy particle generation part (1-3) capable of generating a gas of temperature nonequilibrium condition containing high energy particles through exciting of the gas supplied from the gas cylinder (8) and gas blow part (4) capable of jetting the gas of temperature nonequilibrium condition generated by the high energy particle generation part (1-3) over pathogenic microbes positioned outside.
