Ethylene Oxide (EtO)
Ethylene oxide (EtO) is a flammable, colorless gas that gives off a sweet odor at room temperature. EtO’s main function is to produce other chemicals. It is also often used in the sterilization of certain medical equipment, as its ability to disrupt DNA makes it very effective in this function. In small amounts, EtO is also used as a pesticide and to make antifreeze.
