10.4.5 NOTES
Regarding thermal disinfection cycles versus chemical disinfection cycles, see suggestions from the product standard
ISO EN 15883.
Extracted from ISO EN 15883-1:
“4.1.5 Disinfection is specified by reference to time and temperature for thermal disinfection or as time,
Temperature and concentration for chemical disinfection.
Whenever practicable, thermal disinfection is preferred. Thermal disinfection processes are more easily
controlled and avoid the hazards to staff, patients and the environment that can occur through the use of
chemical disinfectants.”
Regarding significance of the Ao parameter, see Annex B, EN ISO 15883-1.
The parameter expresses “comparative lethality of moist heat processes”, and associates a numeric value with thermal
disinfection effectiveness. A0 concept — “Comparative lethality of moist heat processes”
