Disposable biological indicator for steam sterilization iPACK BIO-STEAM

1.Indicator iPACK BIO-STEAM - 5 pcs. The iPACK BIO-STEAM indicator is a carrier - an Eppendorf tube (or glass bottle) containing dried spores of Geobacillus stearothermophilus strain VKM B 718, packed in a paper-film sterilization bag. Each package contains information: the name of the test microorganism, the number of the series of indicators, the date of manufacture, the manufacturer, an indication of the sterilization method, an indicator strip is printed - a chemical indicator of the steam sterilization process, indicated by the word "STEAM" (PAR). The chemical indicator changes color to brown after sterilization. The number of spores in the biological indicator is 1.0 • 105–5.0 • 106. Resistance of biological indicators "iPACK BIO-STEAM" to the action of saturated water vapor under excessive pressure (1.1 ± 0, 1) kgf / cm2 at a temperature of (120 + 2) ° C should meet the following indicators: the survival time of the spores - at least 5 minutes for each sample, the death time of the spores - should not exceed 15 minutes for each sample. 2. Indicator iPACK BIO-STEAM (CONTROL) - 1 pc. 3. Sterile colored culture medium - 1

• Designed for biological control of the effectiveness of the sterilization process of medical devices, medical products, medical equipment, biological materials, solutions of medicines, culture media, other sterile solutions, in steam sterilizers. 
• The biological control method is based on the thermal inactivation of a certain number of spores of test microorganisms and confirms the real death of contaminating microflora inside the sterilizer and on the sterilized products. 
• The use of indicators makes it possible to identify ineffective sterilization caused by unsatisfactory operation of the sterilizer (equipment for sterilization), violation of loading and operating rules, error in setting parameter values ​​or their failure, which reduces the risk of using non-sterile medical devices and products.

• Extended shelf life; 
• Convenience of transportation and storage; 
• Full range of controlled sterilization modes, etc.
