Abstract
The use of disposable hypodermic syringes has been mandatory in Turkey since 1986. Today, there is a sizable production of disposable medica l products in Turkey and likely to increase in the next 2-3 years. The status of the disposable industries is investigated and their product ion profile is given. Also, some technical details are given about the two industrial irradiation plants of Turkey commissioned recently. Th e legal aspects of sterilization in Turkey are briefly discussed Furth ermore, the impact of commissioning these plants is described.
