项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The safe and simple self-sterilizing bag system, with its INNOVATIVE sterilant releasing plastic insert, is ideal for STERILIZATION of all medical items, especially heat and moisture sensitive medical products. The product has numerous applications both commercially, as well as hospital and in-home healthcare applications. Virtually any heat source can be used to initiate the release of sufficient quantities of sterilant. Chemical, temperature and humidity INDICATORS WITHIN the self-sterilizing bag will give a color indication when adequate STERILANT CONDITIONS have been accomplished INSIDE THE BAG by the combination of time and heat. The relatively low cost of the self- sterilizing bag system makes it widely applicable to a number of specialty sterilization applications such as potential anthrax contaminated letters or other biologically infested items. The self-sterilizing bag system is ideal for environments that may not contain potable water for mixing traditional liquid sterilants making it ideally suited for use in the FIELD, MOBILE CLINICS, RURAL AREAS, or THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES. In summary, the self-sterilizing bag system is a disposable self-contained mini- sterilizer that requires only a small amount of heat to initiate sterilization of the contents of the disposable bag while color indicators tell the user when the sterilization cycle is complete. The self-sterilizing bag system has the potential to have a great impact in worldwide health as an inexpensive infection prevention method. The simplicity, versatility, and low cost of this light-weight disposable self-contained sterilizer answers a real need in developing countries for an inexpensive sterilization method without expensive capital investment in equipment.

描述（由申请人提供）：安全，简单的自助袋系统，具有创新的灭菌塑料插入物，非常适合对所有医疗物品进行灭菌，尤其是热量和水分敏感的医疗产品。该产品在商业上都有许多应用，以及医院和家庭医疗保健应用。实际上，任何热源都可以用来启动足够数量的消毒剂的释放。自杀袋中的化学，温度和湿度指示器将在袋子内通过时间和热量组合在袋中实现适当的无菌条件时会提供颜色指示。自消毒袋系统的相对较低的成本使其广泛适用于许多专业的灭菌应用，例如潜在的炭疽污染字母或其他生物学侵染的物品。自助袋系统非常适合可能不包含饮用水的环境，用于混合传统的液体消毒剂，使其非常适合在现场，移动诊所，农村地区或第三世界国家使用。总而言之，自助袋系统是一次性的自固定的迷你灭菌器，仅需要少量的热量即可启动一次性袋中含量的灭菌，而颜色指示器则告诉用户何时灭菌周期完成。自助袋系统有可能在全球健康中产生巨大影响，作为一种廉价的预防方法。这种轻巧的一次性独立灭菌剂的简单性，多功能性和低成本回答了发展中国家对廉价灭菌方法的真正需求，而没有昂贵的设备资本投资。
