PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a washing machine which can retain a sufficient sterilization effect for a long time and can visibly recognize the remaining quantity of a sterilizer easily. SOLUTION: The washing water inside a tank 18 is circulated by a circulation pump 31 through a circulation route 21. Then silver ions with sterilizability elute into the water by the water coming into contact with the sterilizer inside a filter unit 30. The dissolved silver ions enter together with the washing water into the tank 18. The sterilizer is composed of calcium phosphate, which dissolves into the washing water and gradually reduces the volume of the sterilizer. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
