[Serum sterilization in the cold with peracetic acid].

On the basis of broad antimicrobic effect including also bacterial spores, mycoplasmas and viruses, the peracetic acid suits to sterilize in cold. By means of the final 0,1 to 0.02% concentration of the peracetic acid acting for 30 min. up to 5 days, it succeeded in sterilizing the serum used to prepare culture medium for bacteria, mycoplasmas and tissue cultures. Growth controls shown at least as good results as were those in using filtered sera. Chemical sterilization by means of the peracetic acid leads to significant diminution of neutralization and complementfixation antibodies in serum.

[Beta-propiolactone for cold sterilization of heart valve transplants].

Biologic cardiac valve substitutes were sterilized at room temperature using beta-propiolactone with a 0.5 vol.% solution within 120 minutes, with a 1.0 vol.% solution within 90 minutes, and with a 1.5 resp. 2.0 vol.% solution within 60 minutes. The physico-chemic properties of the graft can be influenced by appropriately chosen concentration and sterilizing period. Enlarged procedures for decontamination are not necessary because of the rapid dissolution of aqueous beta-propiolactone solutions.

[Combined cleaning and cold sterilization procedure for cleaning rooms in virological establishments].

It is reported of a new technique for the cleansing and cold sterilization of glass-ware which is particularly suited for virological laboratories and other laboratories working at cell and tissue cultures. The combined use of an alkaline cleansing agent and sterilization with Wofasteril, a peracetic acid preparation, permits to accelerate considerably the return of culture flasks for re-use.
