The nurse accused of murdering and poisoning patients at the hospital where he worked has told a jury he never harmed any patients.
Victorino Chua repeatedly denied contaminating saline products and falsifying medical records in a series of questions put to him by his barrister, Peter Griffiths QC.
Mr Griffiths asked him: "You are aware that the underlying and fundamental allegation laid against you by the prosecution ... is that you contaminated medical products with insulin.
"My first question is: Did you ever contaminate any medical products with insulin?"
The 49-year-old replied: "No sir."
Questions were put to him in relation to a total of 36 charges including three of murdering patients.
He responded in the same way to all of the questions.
The defendant told a jury at Manchester Crown Court that although he enjoyed working at Stepping Hill hospital in Stockport, he did not get on with some of the staff there.
Asked why that was the case he replied in broken English: "Because when I started they were already in a group.
"They knew each other and they are close. You will see them always together."
The court had already heard that, in a letter found at Mr Chua's home following his arrest in 2012, he described some nurses as "nasty bitches".
In the same note he also described himself as "an angel" who had turned into "an evil person" who had a devil inside him.
He said he had written the letter following a visit to an occupational health counsellor at work and that it was a way to "release the tension".
It is alleged the father-of-two poisoned patients by injecting insulin into saline bags and ampoules.
He is also accused of falsifying patients' medical notes.
He denies all charges against him.
