Evaluation of potential induced activity in medical devices sterilized with electron beam irradiation as a function of maximum electron energy
Commercial sterilization of medical devices may be performed using electron beam irradiators, which operate at various electron energies. The potential for activating components of the devices has been discussed, with current standards stating that an electron energy greater than 10 MeV requires as...
