Product Survey Biological Indicators
Biological indicators are used for validation and routine monitoring of sterilization processes. They will provide evidence of the efficacy of a sterilization cycle. For every sterilization process different bacteria are used. Requirements for biological indicators are determined in ISO 11138.
BAG-ProSpore Dry Heat - biological indicator for monitoring dry heat sterilization processes up to 240°C with 96 hour readout.
Tryptic Soy Broth with 24-hour-readout for Geobacillus stearothermophilus spore products.
