Details
- Self-contained biological indicators.
- Design provides a maximum challenge to various steam sterilization cycles.
- A spore burden beyond the average bioburden (germ count) provides an extra margin of safety.
- Optimized media promote rapid growth of spores.
Biological indicators are the only method that indicates the sterilization process was effective and the spores were killed. A nonpathogenic but highly resistant spore, Geobacillus stearothermophilus, is used to provide a maximum challenge to the steam sterilization process.
