<p>Apparatus and methods for generating, administering, extracting and recovering sterilant gas for sterilizing and/or decontaminating enclosed spaces such as, for example, interior spaces of microbial isolators, and also to components associated with such apparatus and methods. Specifically contemplated herein, inter alia, is an arrangement and a method for automatically, and in a selected one of a predetermined and a predeterminable sequence, carrying out at least two of the steps of: providing decontaminant gas; initiating the administration of decontaminant gas into a target volume; and extracting gas from the target volume. determining the concentration of a given component of fluid or gas, including an arrangement, responsive to an arrangement for sensing the intensity of radiation emitted by an emitter, for providing a correcting feedback to the emitter. This arrangement and method may conceivably be utilized in contexts other than contexts of apparatus and methods for generating, administering, extracting and recovering sterilant gas for sterilizing and/or decontaminating enclosed spaces.</p> |
