Gamma Sterilization: Under which conditions can the sensor be gamma irradiated? (Dry / in a buffer/in an atmosphere without O2?
Sensors can be irradiated dry. We have not studied the effect of reduced/absent O2 during gamma irradiation. No special lighting conditions are required for gamma. However, as these are light sensitive films, standard precautions should be followed in order to minimize exposure to light and therefore extend the life of the film.
