{"title":"Sterilization Biological Indicators","description":"\u003cp\u003eBiological indicators verify that a sterilization cycle achieved the intended lethal dose. Each one carries a standardized population of resistant bacterial spores and a medium that turns a visible color when the spores survive, so a facility can confirm its process lot by lot instead of relying on temperature and time alone. This selection covers biological indicators for steam, ethylene oxide and radiation sterilization, in the readout times, cap colors and ISO 11138 classes a facility compares when qualifying a cycle. Choose by the sterilization method, the readout time, and the standards class the indicator is validated against.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","products":[{"product_id":"3m-attest-steam-biological-indicator-brown-cap","title":"3M Attest Steam Biological Indicator, Brown Cap","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 3M Attest Steam Biological Indicator, 1262, is a self-contained biological indicator that monitors 250°F (121°C) gravity displacement and 270°F (132°C) vacuum-assisted saturated steam sterilization cycles, with a final result read at 48 hours. It is a Geobacillus stearothermophilus spore strip and a sealed glass ampoule of growth medium in a plastic vial topped with a brown color-coded cap, and the chemical process indicator on the label changes from rose to brown\/black when the vial is processed.
