Description
BI-O.K.™ self-contained biological indicator vials monitor steam sterilization loads. Use biological indicators release for all steam sterilization loads. Vials are inoculated with Bacillus atrophaeus spores to challenge steam sterilization.
Use in a steam test pack during the cycle. After the sterilization cycle activate the media by crushing the glass vial with the vial activator and incubate at 57°C. A chemical process indicator on the vial indicates that the vial was exposed to steam. A color change in the media indicates spore growth and cycle failure.
BI-O.K.™ self-contained biological indicator vials are also available for ethylene oxide gas.
