PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sterilization assessment method for assessing whether sterilization of a porous metal film has been concluded.SOLUTION: In a sterilization assessment method for assessing whether sterilization of a porous metal film has been concluded, the method includes: a step to adhere a photosensitive organic substance to at least a portion of the porous metal film a step to sterilize the porous metal film and a step to assess whether sterilization of the porous metal film has been concluded on the basis of modification of the photosensitive organic substance. Using this configuration, whether sterilization of the porous metal film has been concluded is easily assessed on the basis of the photosensitive organic substance adhered to the porous metal film.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5COPYRIGHT: (C)2017,JPO&INPIT【課題】金属製多孔膜の滅菌が完了したことを判別する滅菌判別方法を提供する。【解決手段】金属製多孔膜の滅菌が完了しているかを判別する滅菌判別方法において、金属製多孔膜の少なくとも一部に感光性有機物を付着させる工程、金属製多孔膜を滅菌する工程、および感光性有機物の変性に基づいて金属製多孔膜の滅菌が完了していることを判別する工程、を含む。このような構成により、金属製多孔膜に付着した感光性有機物に基づいて金属製多孔膜の滅菌が完了したことを容易に判別することができる。【選択図】図5
