SteriTec Integraph Flash is a steam sterilization integrator for use in either a pre-vacuum or gravity displacement steam sterilization process of 3 minutes or longer at 132° C (270° F), or a flash steam sterilization process for a 3 Minute cycle or 10 Minute cycle in gravity displacement sterilizers. When exposed to steam sterilization conditions the Integraph Flash strips give an integrated response and visible indication that sterilization conditions were met by changing from a purple to a green color. The stated value in a laboratory test sterilizer for the 3-Minute indicator spot is 5 minutes at 132° C, and for the 10-Minute indicator spot is 11.5 minutes at 132° C.

§ 880.2800 Sterilization process indicator.
(a)
Biological sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A biological sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor adequacy of sterilization. The device consists of a known number of microorganisms, of known resistance to the mode of sterilization, in or on a carrier and enclosed in a protective package. Subsequent growth or failure of the microorganisms to grow under suitable conditions indicates the adequacy of sterilization.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).(b)
Physical/chemical sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A physical/chemical sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor one or more parameters of the sterilization process. The adequacy of the sterilization conditions as measured by these parameters is indicated by a visible change in the device.(2)
