Spore Strip Ethylene Oxide and Dry Heat
Product Description
Spore Strips consist of a paper spore strip inoculated with a sterilization-resistant spore population which are packaged in a glassine envelope. The glassine envelope serves as a microbial barrier which protects the spore strip from post sterilization contamination.
