Surgery


Sterile container (1)

 

 

The surgeon needed, for sterile storage of instruments and bandages, boxes that could be steam-sterilized in an autoclave. In this sense, the company ADNET after the First World War brought boxes of tinplate (z.T. nickel plated) in the sales with a lid that sealed by means of bayonet closure. There was a ring of closable openings in the lid. Illustration by Rehm p. 167.
