These test packs present a challenging situation within the sterilizer to monitor its performance. A sophisticated Class 5 integrating chemical indicator inside a porous PCD pack shows that effective sterilant penetration has occurred.
Additional Information
The chemical integrators inside these test packs are Class 5 integrating indicators. 3M™ Comply™ Steam and EO Chemical Integrators can also be used as the process challenge device (PCD) to release processed items, excluding implants (load control), however, their use does not replace the use of biological indicators in PCDs.
