STERIM Bowie & Dick test pack for steam sterilisation control

The Bowie Dick test is a card with the tested substance inserted between sheets of special paper, laminate and foam. This design of the package reflects the critical conditions and allows you to check whether the generated steam reaches every nook and cranny of the sterilized package.
The daily performance check consists of placing the test pack in the heated empty chamber of the sterilizer and running the Bowie-Dick program. After sterilization is complete, remove the package, wait for it to cool, and then open it and read the test result. Confirmation of the effectiveness of the control is a change in the color of the test sheet (and also the indicator on the outer label) - from yellow to black.
