For Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide (VH2O2) sterilization, the biological indicator typically contains Bacillus subtilis spores. This microorganism is selected for its high resistance to vaporized hydrogen peroxide, making it an ideal challenge organism for validating the efficacy of the VH2O2 sterilization process. If the spores survive the sterilization cycle, it signals that the sterilization process was insufficient.
Using Sterifast VH2O2 biological indicators is a critical step in healthcare settings to monitor and ensure the proper functioning of sterilization cycles, providing confidence that medical instruments and equipment have been effectively sterilized and are safe for use.
Sterifast Biological indicators are essential test systems used to verify the effectiveness of sterilization processes by containing viable microorganisms with defined resistance to specific sterilization methods. These indicators help ensure that the necessary conditions were met to eliminate a specified number of microorganisms, confirming the success of the sterilization process.
