The use of the carbon dioxide (CO2) laser for sterilization of metal instruments was investigated. Scalpal blades contaminated with bacterial spores were exposed to the laser and subsequently cultured. Our results demonstrate that the CO2 laser effectively sterilizes metal instruments.

研究了使用二氧化碳（CO2）激光对金属器械进行消毒的情况。将沾染细菌孢子的手术刀刀片暴露于激光下，随后进行培养。我们的结果表明，CO2激光能有效消毒金属器械。
