VERIFY® V24 Self-Contained Biological Indicator
VERIFY® V24 Self-Contained Biological Indicators (SCBI) provide the challenge you need to be confident in your gaseous hydrogen peroxide sterilization processes. For use in routine monitoring of V-PRO® Low Temperature Sterilizers, STERRAD® * 100S Sterilizer, STERRAD® 200 Sterilizer, STERRAD® NX Sterilizer and STERRAD® 100NX Sterilizer.
How VERIFY V24 SCBIs Work
Each indicator is completely self-contained, providing 106 colony forming units (CFU) of Geobacillus stearothermophilus and an ampoule of specifically formulated growth medium with a pH indicator. It is designed to be sealed after processing, reducing the risk of contamination (and consequent false positives) and evaporation of growth medium.
A chemical process indicator on each vial provides immediate proof of processing. Following incubation, a vivid color change of the growth media from orange to yellow and/or turbidity gives distinct evidence of microbial growth. If no microbial growth occurs, the media remains orange and clear (no turbidity).
Why VERIFY V24 SCBIs?
The VERIFY V24 SCBI is a proven and compliant challenge method for both gas plasma and vaporized hydrogen peroxide systems.
- Fast – 24 hour incubation time
- Easy to Read – Orange to yellow color change indicates growth
- Flexible – For use in gas plasma and vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilizers
