STERILIZATION POUCH, STERILIZATION SYSTEM, STERILIZATION METHOD, AND REACTIVE OXYGEN SPECIES INDICATOR

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sterilization treatment including putting a product to be treated into a bag for sterilization by reactive oxygen species and estimating the sterilization effect using an indicator, with a reduced possibility of breakage of the product to be treated due to contact with the indicator when the indicator is injected into the bag filled with the product to be treated before the treatment, or during the bag filled with the product to be treated is carried after the treatment; and with reduced possibility of prevention of detection of the amount of the reactive oxygen species due to contact between the detection surface of the indicator and the product to be treated during sterilization treatment.SOLUTION: The sterilization pouch includes a sterilization part in which a product to be treated is placed to be sealed and an indicator part at which a reactive oxygen species indicator for measuring the amount of reactive oxygen species is disposed. At least a part of the sterilization part includes a material impermeable to microorganism and virus. The indicator part is disposed outside of the space occupied by the sterilization part. 【課題】被処理物を袋の内部に入れて活性酸素種による殺菌処理を行い、インジケータを用いて殺菌効果を推定する殺菌処理において、処理前にインジケータを被処理物が入った袋に投入する時や処理後の被処理物が入った袋の持ち運び中にインジケータが被処理物と接触して被処理物が破損する可能性を減少すること。また、殺菌処理中にインジケータの検出面が被処理物と接触することにより活性酸素種量の検出が妨げられる可能性を減少すること。【解決手段】被処理物を入れて密封される殺菌部と、活性酸素種の量を測定する活性酸素種インジケータが設置されるインジケータ部とを有し、該殺菌部は少なくともその一部に微生物およびウイルスを透過しない素材を含み、該インジケータ部は該殺菌部の占有空間の外部に設けられている、殺菌パウチ。【選択図】図１
