Cleaning and Disinfecting Medical Implants
Hip implants were cleaned in the VCN process using off the self hydrogen peroxide concentrations of 3%. The results were acceptable implants well within the required levels for bio burden, toxicity and total carbon.
PART #1 | PART #2 | PART #3 |
ACCEPTABLE LEVELS |

BIOBURDEN | 8 | 16 | 30 | <100, PREFERABLY <50 |
TOXICITY | GRADE 2, MILDLY TOXIC BEFORE CLEANING |

TOTAL CARBON | 191 | 282 | 248 | <1500 NORMALLY TEST AT 100/500 |
MEDICAL PARTS CLEANER THAT CLEANS INTERNAL SURFACES
The video shows vapor bubble formation within an internal porous matrix. The porous part behaves like a sponge during the pulsing VCN process. Fluid is expelled from the part during the vacuum cycle as when squeezing a sponge and then the pores are filled with fresh fluid during the pressure cycle as when a sponge is submerged in a fluid.
