The present disclosure provides for methods, systems and apparatus for monochromatic UV light sterilization of container systems and/or container-packaged products. More particularly, the present disclosure provides for improved methods, systems and apparatus for monochromatic UV light sterilization of liquid and/or solid products/solutions and/or packaging/container systems for liquid and/or solid products/solutions (e.g., parenteral pharmaceutical products/solutions and/or packaging/container systems for parenteral pharmaceutical products/solutions). In exemplary embodiments, the present disclosure provides for improved systems and methods for the sterilization of container systems and/or container-packaged products using monochromatic, continuous wave, high-intensity, incoherent light in multiple light source configurations, wherein such sterilization regimen achieves a desired sterilization level without negatively affecting the physical properties of the package/container systems and/or the efficacy of the underlying products/systems.

Methods, systems and apparatus for monochromatic UV light sterilization

A portable apparatus which produces high temperature and pressure steam derived from a microwave energy source for the rapid sterilization of medical and dental appliances. Items to be sterilized are placed in a detachable high pressure chamber which is then attached to the microwave powered steam source. Microwave energy is coupled into a guiding structure containing a shaped impedance transformation element so that essentially all of the microwave energy is transferred to a reaction fluid contained in a holder at the end of the matching element. The reaction fluid is rapidly vaporized and the resulting vapors rapidly expand into the chamber through a metal screen that also prevents transmission of microwave energy. Pressure temperature values internal to the chamber are used to control application of microwave power thereby maintaining an optimum micro-organism kill condition for a prescribed time interval.
