Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method and apparatus for removing the needle portion of a hypodermic syringe and simultaneously sterilizing and destroying the needle portion of a hypodermic syringe, eliminating the risk of infection by microorganisms that may be present in or on the needle. When a syringe is inserted into the apparatus, the needle is heated to a temperature sufficient to inactivate any virus, bacteria, yeast, or other microorganism remaining on or within the needle. The needle also is cut at the location of melting so that the needle is removed from the remaining portion of the syringe. Heating and cutting elements (146, 165a) are part of a disposable cartridge (112), which also contains the cut-off needle portions.
