Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

De biologiske indikatorer, der leveres af Safe Sterilization A\/S, er designet til kontrol og validering af sterilisationsprocesser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moist heat sterilization (autoclaving) is carried out by use of dry saturated steam under pressure. In order to kill microorganisms, including bacterial spores, a temperature of at least 121\u00b0C is required for 15 minutes or 134\u00b0C for 3 minutes or equivalent combination of temperature and time, to achieve the specified kill effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sterilization with dry heat (dry heat sterilisation) takes place in a dry sterilizer requiring effective circulation of the hot air. It requires higher temperature and longer time to dry heat sterilize than to sterilize in an autoclave. This is due to dry air has significantly lower heat capacity and a poorer thermal conductivity than dry saturated steam as in an autoclave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Killing off microorganisms, including bacterial spores, is achieved in dry sterilisation by a minimum requirement of temperature against cycle time: 160\u00b0C for 2 hours, 170\u00b0C for 1 hour, or 180\u00b0C for 30 minutes, or equivalent combination in order to achieve the specified kill effect.\nIt is important to measure the sterilization time from the moment the specified temperature is achieved in the autoclave\/dry sterilizer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Product description<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The biological indicators have been manufactured in accordance with DS\/EN ISO 11138-1, 11138-3 and DS\/EN ISO 11138-4. SAFE Sterilization has selected a combined indicator to be used for sterilization with steam as well as dry heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bacterial spores come from strains of standardized microorganisms from, for example, ATTC (American Type Culture Collection) or NRRL (ARS Culture Collection).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The biological indicators used to test steam sterilisation (autoclaves) are with bacterial spores from Geobacillus stearothermophilus,<\/em>and to test dry heat (dry sterilizers), bacterial spores from Bacillus atrophaeus.<\/em>. Disse bakteriesporer har stor resistens (D-v\u00e6rdi) over for den specifikke sterilisationsmetode, og er derfor egnet til periodisk kontrol og validering af disse sterilisationsprocesser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Biological indicators are used for periodic verification of sterilization processes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The biological indicators are also used for validations, post-repair verification, as well as for verifying sterilization processes of temporary equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Testinterval for brug af biologiske indikatorer er angivet i branchestandarder, Nationale Infektionshygiejniske Retningslinjer (NIR), samt som guidelines hos brancheorganisationer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please refer to our User guide<\/a> and Recommendations for the healthcare sector<\/a> on our website, Danish industry only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Validation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Du skal altid anvende en valideret autoklave eller t\u00f8rsterilisator til sterilisation af udstyr, som benyttes p\u00e5 patienter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Storage, durability and disposal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Biological indicators should be stored at 2-24\u00b0C, dry and protected from direct sunlight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expiration date is indicated on the biological indicator. Never use an expired biological indicator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unused biological indicators must be sterilized and can be discarded as ordinary waste. If the biological indicators are not sterilized, you must dispose of them as clinical hazardous waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Subscription<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Safe Sterilization offers subscription plans, contact us<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biological indicators are also sold individually, e.g. for the validation of equipment, additional checks after repairing the sterilizer or when using a loan sterilizer. Contact Safe to learn more.<\/p>\n\n\n
