BI-O.K. EO Vials - 100 per box

BI-O.K.™ Ethylene Oxide Biological Indicator vials are easy to use. First, simply place one vial in each sterilization load, either in a pack or test pack. Then, upon completion of the EO cycle, activate the vial by crushing the glass ampoule with the provided vial activator. This releases the spores into the nutrient media, initiating the incubation process.

After incubation at 37°C for 48 hours, the color change of the media indicates whether the cycle was effective. If the media remains red, indicating the absence of spore growth, the sterilization process was successful. However, if the media turns yellow, it signifies spore growth, indicating a failure of the sterilization cycle.

BI-O.K.™ vials adhere to stringent quality standards and are rigorously tested to ensure their reliability in detecting even the most challenging microorganisms.
