A? Low cost? Really? I thought gas plasma sterilizers were pretty expensive. Maybe the infection control physician is trying to pull a fast one on us.

D is an interesting choice, but I think gas plasma is actually suitable for a wider range of instruments, not just endoscopes.

I'm not sure about C. Linen and paper may not be suitable for gas plasma sterilization, as they could be damaged by the process.

B seems like the correct answer here. Gas plasma can effectively penetrate long, narrow instruments, which is an advantage over other sterilization methods.
