McKesson Sterilization Chemical Indicator Strip – Steam, 4 Inch Length

The McKesson Sterilization Chemical Indicator Strip – Steam, 4 Inch Length is designed to help verify exposure to proper steam sterilization conditions during instrument processing. These indicator strips contain chemical indicators that change color when exposed to specific steam sterilization parameters, providing an immediate visual reference for staff.

Commonly placed inside instrument trays, pouches, and wrapped packs, these strips help confirm that steam has penetrated the load during the sterilization cycle. The 4-inch length makes them easy to position and visible when inspecting processed instruments.

These indicator strips are intended for steam sterilization processes only and are commonly used alongside external indicators and biological monitoring as part of a comprehensive sterilization quality assurance program.

Packaged in boxes of 250 strips, with 10 boxes per case, this product supports both high-volume central sterile departments and smaller clinical environments. Your minimum selling unit is 1 box (BX).
