Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A sterilization system for sterilizing an article is disclosed. The sterilization system may include a hydrogen peroxide generation system configured to generate hydrogen peroxide, a hydroxyl generation system configured to produce a flow of hydroxyl radicals that causes deterioration of the hydrogen peroxide to produce hydroxyl ions, and a sterilization chamber configured to expose the article to the hydroxyl ions to sterilize the article. Additionally, methods for sterilizing articles are disclosed. Those methods may include generating hydrogen peroxide, producing a flow of hydroxyl radicals that causes deterioration of the hydrogen peroxide to produce hydroxyl ions, and exposing the article to the hydroxyl ions to sterilize the article.
