羊肠线的研究  (一)灭菌方法的初步研究

STUDIES ON ABSORBABLE SURGICAL SUTURES(CATGUT)(Ⅰ)ON THE METHODS OF STERILIZATION

摘要: 使用紫外光灯在一定时间及一定距离内照射羊肠线,可以提高羊肠线的无菌率。利用化学药品消毒有的文献上说是完全不可靠的,但是我们的实验指出,化学药品对羊肠线有显著的清毒作用。加热法一向被认为是羊肠线唯一可靠的消毒方法,但是我们的实验指出,加热法如果不在良好的化学药品消毒和无菌操作的配合下也不能制得绝对无菌的羊肠线。

Abstract: The effectiveness of chemical,ultraviolet light,and heat sterilization of surgical catgut is studied. Chemical sterilization,although regarded by certain authority as entirely unreliable,is found to be very helpful prior to the final heat sterilization. Ultraviolet light sterilization is also found to be effective for increasing the rate of sterility of surgical catgut.
