MagnaAmp©
MagnaAmp© is a self-contained biological indicator ampoule for monitoring pressure steam sterilization of liquids in large liquid loads of 150mL or more. Each sealed glass ampoule contains Geobacillus stearothermophilus spores in 1 mL nutrient medium. Viable spore growth from a failed cycle will turn the broth bright yellow within 48 hours incubation at 57ºC.
Ten negative control vials, containing only nutrient media and no spores, are included in each package.
The unique neck allows the vial to be suspended mid-flask to ensure that conditions for complete sterilization have reached even the center of a body of liquid.
The flat bottom also allows the ampoule to be set next to a container of liquid of the same size and the liquid is a similar viscosity.
For use with the MagnaAmp© Incubator.
