Self-Contained Biological Indicators consist of: ✅ A plastic pipe and cap. The cap with a hole is placed on top of the pipeto allow the sterilizing agent to penetrate into the indicator. Between pipe and cap there is a filter paper which is used to avoid pollution. ✅ A crushable media ampule which contains modified culture mediumwith a pH indicator and fluorogenic substrates. The modified culture mediumwill transition from the initial Purple color to Yellow in the presence of bacterial growth. ✅ An inoculated carrier of Geobacillus stearothermop hilus ATCC 7953 is located at the bottom closed end of the pipe. ✅ A barrier is positioned like a plug between the carrier and the ampule. ✅ The LBS180 Biological Indicator, when used with an automatic reader(incubation temperature 56-60°C), provides a fluorescence test result in a short period(180 minutes) with an accuracy of ≥97%. As an option the user can continue the incubation for 48 hours in order to confirm visually the stability or color change of the culture medium. ✅ The label on the outside of the plastic pipe contains a Type 1 chemical indicator strip. |
