DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The safe and simple self-sterilizing bag system, with its INNOVATIVE sterilant releasing plastic insert, is ideal for STERILIZATION of all medical items, especially heat and moisture sensitive medical products. The product has numerous applications both commercially, as well as hospital and in-home healthcare applications. Virtually any heat source can be used to initiate the release of sufficient quantities of sterilant. Chemical, temperature and humidity INDICATORS WITHIN the self-sterilizing bag will give a color indication when adequate STERILANT CONDITIONS have been accomplished INSIDE THE BAG by the combination of time and heat. The relatively low cost of the self- sterilizing bag system makes it widely applicable to a number of specialty sterilization applications such as potential anthrax contaminated letters or other biologically infested items. The self-sterilizing bag system is ideal for environments that may not contain potable water for mixing traditional liquid sterilants making it ideally suited for use in the FIELD, MOBILE CLINICS, RURAL AREAS, or THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES. In summary, the self-sterilizing bag system is a disposable self-contained mini- sterilizer that requires only a small amount of heat to initiate sterilization of the contents of the disposable bag while color indicators tell the user when the sterilization cycle is complete. The self-sterilizing bag system has the potential to have a great impact in worldwide health as an inexpensive infection prevention method. The simplicity, versatility, and low cost of this light-weight disposable self-contained sterilizer answers a real need in developing countries for an inexpensive sterilization method without expensive capital investment in equipment.

描述（由申请人提供）：安全、简单的自消毒袋系统，配有创新的消毒剂释放塑料插件，非常适合所有医疗物品的消毒，特别是对热和湿气敏感的医疗产品。该产品具有多种商业应用、医院和家庭医疗保健应用。事实上，任何热源都可以用来启动足够量的灭菌剂的释放。当通过时间和热量的组合在袋内达到足够的灭菌条件时，自消毒袋内的化学、温度和湿度指示器将给出颜色指示。自消毒袋系统的成本相对较低，使其广泛适用于许多专业消毒应用，例如潜在炭疽污染的信件或其他生物感染的物品。自消毒袋系统非常适合可能不含用于混合传统液体消毒剂的饮用水的环境，使其非常适合在现场、移动诊所、农村地区或第三世界国家使用。 总之，自消毒袋系统是一种一次性自给式小型消毒器，仅需要少量热量即可对一次性袋中的内容物进行消毒，同时颜色指示器会告诉用户消毒周期何时完成。作为一种廉价的感染预防方法，自消毒袋系统有可能对全球健康产生巨大影响。这种轻型一次性独立灭菌器的简单性、多功能性和低成本满足了发展中国家对廉价灭菌方法的实际需求，而无需昂贵的设备资本投资。
