Provisions must be made for allowing residues of the stefilant absorbed by the product to dissipate by using aeration cabinets that have forced-air circulation at elevated temperatures. The amount of remaining absorbed stefilant should be determined before releasing the sterilized articles. If, as in the case of hospital sterilization, such studies are not feasible, the recommendations of the manufacturers of the articles sterilized or of the aeration equipment should be obtained. The permissible residue concentrations are 10—250 ppm, depending on the type of article and on its intended use. 

An almost complete description of both OH radical-mediated and one-electron oxidation reactions of the thymine moiety (3) of DNA and related model compounds is now possible on the basis of detailed studies of the final oxidation products and their radical precursors. Relevant information on the structure and redox properties of transient pyrimidine radicals is available from pulse radiolysis measurements that in most cases have involved the use of the redox titration technique. It may be noted that most of the rate constants implicating the formation and the fate of the latter radicals have been also assessed. This has been completed by the isolation and characterization of the main thymine and thymidine hydroperoxides that arise from the fate of the pyrimidine radicals in aerated aqueous solutions. Information is also available on the formation of thymine hydroperoxides as the result of initial addition of radiation-induced reductive species including H" atom and solvated electron. 

There is also an expectation that thiols can be directly oxidized through to disulfides (RSSR in Fig. 4.4B) (Mestres et ah, 2000 Rauhut et ah, 1996), a mechanism also suggested for the case of 3MH (Murat et ah, 2003) where a protective effect from anthocyanins present in the wine was noted. In one study, the concentrations of both ethanethiol and the related oxidized form of diethyl disulfide in a red wine were found to decrease over a 60-day period, and at a greater rate under aeration (Majcenovic et ah, 2002). However, in a survey of wines over five vintages, the older wines were shovm to contain higher concentrations of diethyl disulfide, and lower concentrations of ethanethiol (Fedrizzi et ah, 2007). 

The stirring speed chosen should be higher than these two speeds, Nj and Nnun. If a special suction impeller is designed, there is also a minimum speed for bubble suction from the upper head space, van Dierendonck and Nelemans [14] have studied in detail this type of aeration. It draws an additional power for sparging as shown in Fig. 5.3-5 for the case of hydrogen. 

Conventional stirred-tank polymeric reactors normally use turbine, propeller, blade, or anchor stirrers. Power consumption for a power-law fluid in such reactors can be expressed in a dimensionless form, Ne = Reynolds number based on the consistency coefficient for the power-law fluid. Various forms for the function f(m) in terms of the power-law index have been proposed. Unlike that for Newtonian fluid, the shear rate in the case of power-law fluid depends on the ratio dT/dt and the stirrer speed N. For anchor stirrers, the functionality g developed by Beckner and Smith (1962) is recommended. For aerated non-Newtonian fluids, the study of Hocker and Langer (1962) for turbine stirrers is recommended. For viscoelastic fluids, the works of Reher (1969) and Schummer (1970) should be useful. The mixing time for power-law fluids can also be correlated by the dimensionless relation NO = /(Reeff = Ndfpjpti ) (Tebel et aL 1986).
