Product Details

Ensure your autoclave is operating properly with these strips for Autoclave Verification. Each strip contains Bacillus stearothermophilus spores—thermophilic, highly resistant organisms capable of growing at 65 °C and above—individually sealed in protective envelopes. During verification, place the strips in the autoclave where steam exposure occurs. After the sterilization cycle, incubate the strip in nutrient broth at 55–60 °C for at least 48 hours. The absence of microbial growth confirms effective sterilization. A reliable, easy-to-use biological indicator for routine performance checks in science labs.
