Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 198, Sterilization of health care products.
This first edition of ISO 11139 cancels and replaces ISO/TS 11139:2006, which has been technically
revised.
The main changes compared with the previous edition are as follows:
— all the terms and definitions have been reviewed based on existing documents in the field and future
needs, and have been revised accordingly for consistency of use;
NOTE This vocabulary is now the source document for these terms.
— additional terms and definitions have been added.

ISO 11139:2018(E)
Introduction
This document provides the fundamental vocabulary for sterilization of health care products and
associated equipment. It provides the foundation for other standards on cleaning, disinfecting,
sterilizing, and aseptic processing of health care products together with associated equipment and
ancillary products used in ensuring effective application of these processes. This document is intended
to help the user to understand the vocabulary of cleaning, disinfecting, sterilizing, and aseptically
processing health care products, in order to be able to implement the related standards effectively.
This document contains the terms and definitions that apply to all standards on cleaning, disinfecting,
sterilizing, and aseptic processing of health care products together with associated equipment
and ancillary products developed by ISO/TC 198 and other European standards in the same field of
application.
The terms and definitions are arranged in alphabetical order in English.
ISO/TC 198 has produced a white paper describing the principles used to develop this compilation
of terms and definitions and proposals on its use in the development of new and revised standards
for disinfecting, sterilizing, and aseptic processing of health care products together with associated
equipment and ancillary products. This white paper is available through the International Organization
for Standardization.
The Bibliography includes the standards referenced in Annex A. If a term has been dropped in a current
revision, reference has not been made.
