                    (B) THE NEW JOHNSON & JOHNSON STERRAD GLOBAL DISCHARGE
                    UNIT, IS THE MOST PREFERRED. THE STERRAD IS ABOUT THE
                    SIZE OF AN EFFICIENCY APARTMENT REFRIGERATOR, USES A
                    110 VOLT STANDARD OUTLET. THE STERILIZATION CYCLE
                    TAKES APPROXIMATELY 50 MINUTES, AT A TEMPERATURE OF 100
                    DEGREES FAHRENHEIT, AND DOES NOT EMIT HARMFUL BY-
                    PRODUCTS, AS DOES ETO GAS STERILIZATION. THE STERRAD
                    SHOULD HAVE BEEN APPROVED BY THE FDA FOR SALES BY
                    JOHNSON & JOHNSON RECENTLY. WHICH GENERALLY SETS A
                    TREND FOR OTHER COMPANIES TO MARKET A SIMILAR PRODUCT,
                    SUCH AS AMSCO. THE STERRAD WOULD BE EXCELLENT FOR THE
                    TWO HOSPITAL SHIPS, WHICH ARE RESTRICTED BY THE COAST
                    GUARD TO USE ETO GAS STERILIZERS DUE TO SAFETY REASONS.

                    1129) WESCODYNE, WHICH CAME WITH THE PLATFORM,M IS VERY
                    HARD ON INSTRUMENT SURFACES LEAVES STAINS, AND IS NOT
                    OPTIMUM AS A DECONTAMINATION AND CLEANING PRODUCT. A
                    PHENOLIC PRODUCT (SOME ARE CARRIED IN THE FEDERAL STOCK
                    SYSTEM) IS PREFERABLE AS AN ALL AROUND
