No, Jianming, the blister is pre-filled with normal air and is simply used as packing material to ensure that the ampoule doesn't break during shipping/handling. The entire package (blister and ampoule) is presumably placed into a sterilizer (sterilization chamber) and gassed with EtO so that it can't contaminate anything else it comes into contact with later, e.g. in a clean room.

As Erich points out below, a better term would be "fumigation"

Hello Jianming, as I understand it, the component is sealed in a brown glas ampoule. The ampoule is the packed in blister wrap. The blister wrap and the ampoule are fumigated with EtO for sterilization.
