According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Devices and methods of sterilizing an object are presented in which the object is sealed in a container that includes a nitric oxide permeable microbial barrier that allows for permeation of nitric oxide into the container to reach sterilizing conditions within the container. In typical embodiments, the sealed container is placed in a sealable second container into which nitric oxide is fed or in which nitric oxide is generated. From the sealed second container, nitric oxide enters the container with the object through the nitric oxide permeable microbial barrier to provide a sterilizing nitric oxide concentration. Advantageously, contemplated devices and methods allow for rapid sterilization at low temperatures and do not present a hazard for the operator or environment."

The patent application was internationally filed on Jan. 05, 2024, under International application No.PCT/US2024/010443.
