ABSTRACT:
A sterilization method and apparatus comprise a coil connected to a high-frequency current generating source to generate a magnetic field in which a device to be sterilized is disposed so that an eddy current is generated in a conductor forming the device or a conductor disposed in the vicinity of the device due to the electromagnetic induction action, whereby bacteria attached to the device is sterilized by heat produced by the eddy current loss. The sterilization method and apparatus is suitable for a device such as a tubular connector for connecting between the abdominal cavity and a disposable container containing a dialysate in the peritoneal dialysis, specifically the continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis and which is repeatedly used while exchanging the container.
