Details and resources
Product Overview
Great Divide Labs biological indicators are designed specifically for hydrogen peroxide vapour bio-decontamination processes.
Each indicator is inoculated with Geobacillus stearothermophilus ATCC 12980 endospores, providing a resistant biological challenge for confirming the effectiveness of a decontamination cycle.
Each batch is enumerated, D-value tested and species identified to support consistent and reliable results.
304 Stainless Steel Coupon in Tyvek/Tyvek Pouch
304 stainless-steel coupon sealed in a medical-grade Tyvek/Tyvek pouch.
High-porosity Tyvek enables rapid hydrogen peroxide vapour penetration to the coupon.
Controlled manufacturing helps minimize the risk of false-positive results.
Pouch construction allows quick hanging and convenient placement during cycle validation.
Available with E6, E5, E4 and E3 populations.
304 Stainless Steel Strip “Naked BI”
304 stainless-steel strip intended for use as an unpackaged or naked biological indicator.
Suitable where primary packaging could restrict hydrogen peroxide penetration.
Useful with atomized, aerosolized or fogged hydrogen peroxide processes.
Compact strip format supports placement in tight locations during cycle development and validation.
Available with E6, E5, E4 and E3 populations.
Testing and Validation
Each batch is enumerated, D-value tested and species identified. The indicators use Geobacillus stearothermophilus ATCC 12980 endospores as a resistant challenge for hydrogen peroxide vapour processes.
