Ozone for sterilization of precooked corn

I have got a powerful commercial ozone generator that supposedly kills all single celled bacteria & spores upon contact. I am wondering if I can use this to sterilize some packages precooked yellow corn (which is already sterilized to some extent) that you find in the frozen section of your local grocery shop. Anybody tried this approach? Sorry, if this sounds silly. I'm a newbie to all this.

it doesn't sterilize the inside of grain. it doesn't penetrate biofilm or mucus that a bacterial colony can create.

Precooked grains usually have a higher water content than you would want. Some may have salt added too, this may or may not be excessive.
I do not know about frozen corn but canned stuff should certainly be sterile. I have gotten canned grains, rinsed off the salty brine solution and put into clean jars and microwaved off the excess moisture. This boiling of the grain creates steam which will then heat treat the inside of the jar. If you weigh the jars and the grain you can calculate the weight it should be at your desired moisture content.
These below are red kidney beans and peas

The grains exploded while microwaving, so far from ideal. I would be interested to see if the ozone could work. I have dried out grains using heat pads too, much slower but no exploding grains.

Why would you guys use canned or frozen corn? It can work, but I'd have to really put my mind to it to come up with some worse sources of grain.

Maybe put your mind to thinking why, exercise your mind or lose it. If you seriously can't think of any reason I will give some, but I am sick of wiping peoples shitty holes who seemingly point blank refuse to think of other peoples situations and only their own.

I thought of some reasons you may, but I didn't want to be rude so I didn't say anything.

There is no grain in the third world, but they have pressure cookers and the internet?
