Steam sterilization biological indicator BY-500

temperaturemedical

Steam Chemical Integrators are chemical indicators consisting of a paper wick and a steam and temperature sensitive chemical pellet contained in a paper/film/foil laminate. The chemical pellet melts and migrates as a dark colour along the paper wick. The migration is visible through a window marked REJECT or ACCEPT. The extent of migration depends on steam, time, and temperature. The use of steam chemical integrators inside each pack will monitor time, temperature and steam exposure conditions and can provide the necessary sterilization assurance on a pack-to-pack basis.
