Exploration of oxygen-mediated disinfection of medical devices reveals a high sensitivity of pseudomonas aeruginosa to elevated oxygen levels

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Francis M. Cavallo from the DepartmentUniversity of have published the paper: Exploration of oxygen-mediated disinfection of medical devices reveals a high sensitivity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to elevated oxygen levels, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports
• what: The authors show that one can take advantage of the oxygen sensitivity of P. aeruginosa to reduce its load on medical devices, as exemplified with the Tolero handset nebulizer. This study aimed to explore the potentially bactericidal effects of gas mixtures, with oxygen contents higher than the atmospheric 21%, and to evaluate whether such elevated oxygen . . .
