Annex A (informative) Guidance
Annex B (informative) Process definition based on
inactivation of the microbial population in
its natural state (bioburden-based method)

inactivation of a reference microorganism and
a knowledge of bioburden on product items to
be sterilized (combined bioburden/biological
indicator based method)

based on inactivation of reference microorganisms
(overkill method)
