Affordable
Low acquisition and per cycle cost. Easy and inexpensive installation. Many practices see full return on investment in a few months or even a few weeks.
You don’t want superbugs haunting your clinic: endangering your patients, staff and the stability of your practice. You need a terminal sterilization solution.
Our sterilizers are very easy to use and you get free training for the life of your sterilizer. Plus you get a sterilization expert on your team, ready to answer any questions.
When you think about staff time management, don’t just consider cycle time, also consider capacity. Instead of running all day, staff can run one cycle overnight.
You give our fuzzy (scaled, plumed and otherwise decorated) friends the best care. This is just one more aspect of providing your patients and their parents the best.
Operator Safety
Our exclusive technology works behind the scenes to keep your staff safe. The microdose of EO and smart cabinet design are just two of these safeguards.
Ethylene oxide is the gold standard in sterilization. It offers hospital-level sterility assurance (10⁻⁶) along with unparalleled gentleness and material compatibility.
We sterilize our general surgical instruments, Storz endoscopes and those related to arthroscopic surgeries in our gas sterilizer. We have a fair number of plastic instruments we sterilize as well, such as drains. Those items would melt in a steam sterilizer.
We custom make various sizes of plastic tubing for our large patients so our Andersen unit is great for sterilizing them before use. The length of the chamber is critical as it holds all our larger instruments and scopes.”

I have one of these gas sterilization units [AN74j]. It saves you a lot of money in that you can put a lot of instruments in here at the same time. You can put long instruments at the same time. I can put my endoscope in here at the same time. I find this preferable to the autoclave for a lot of reasons. Number one, cost savings. I probably does a better job as far specialty instruments, tubing and other things an autoclave cannot do.”

I used my Anprolene gas sterilizer as cost reducer in my two practices. All surgery packs were only gas sterilized which prolonged the life of the surgical instruments. I have surgical instruments that are 15 years old yet in like new condition because they were never steamed to sterilize.
The cost of purchasing new instruments was significantly reduced by use of my Anprolene sterilizing system. The reduction of instrument replacement costs more than paid for my Anprolene sterilizer.”

The ease of use makes the Anprolene Sterilizer a time saver and is maintenance free. The system will last a very long time with no repair or maintenance costs. Purchasing an Anprolene sterilizer was one of the better business decisions I made in 27 years of practice.”

I love the Anprolene Sterilizer I have!
My students are always amazed at the expansive list of items recommended to be sterilized by EtO. I strive to help them understand how the system can benefit their practice and actually save them money.
Thank you so much for the user-friendly equipment, great training and unmatched technical support. I don’t know what I would do without it.”

The only FDA-cleared, room-temperature gas sterilization solution on the market. When space is at a premium, Anprolene is king. All this at a very affordable price point.
The FDA-cleared EOGas 4 has four cycles to choose from. The fastest is just 3.5 hours. If you use the same high-dollar instrument more than once a day, this one’s for you!
Need a constant flow of sterile instruments for multiple specialists? Run 6-10 loads independently - start a new one while others are in process. Units can be validated.
