The invention discloses a
treatment unit and a sterilization method for removing microorganisms, especially
bacillus cereus, without affecting pancreatin activity, the
treatment unit comprises a double-layer
solid filter element to terminate the sterilization effect of a sterilization solution and stabilize the pH value of a
system, and the sterilization method comprises the steps of
microorganism inactivation, treatment by the
treatment unit and
drying by a
forced air drying process; according to the treatment unit, through the synergistic effect of the upper-layer
solid filter element and the lower-layer
solid filter element, the stable PH value is maintained while the sterilization effect of the sterilization liquid is terminated, and the pancreatin solution which is free of oxidability, moderate in pH and capable of achieving the
microorganism standard is obtained. In addition, through the specific working concentration of the non-compound PAA
stock solution, the specific treatment unit composition and the
forced air drying process and parameters, the problem that the existing sterilization method cannot give consideration to both the
bacillus cereus removal effect and the pancreatin activity retention is solved.
