Medical ethylene oxide sterilization equipment explosion causes

Human factors. Due to the operator's professional and technical weakness, errors in medical ethylene oxide sterilization equipment before the start of the gas cylinder is not opened, and did not carefully check whether there is ethylene oxide into the ethylene oxide into the ethylene oxide into the gas inside the sound of a chemical reaction leading to an explosion.
