* The number of trays processed is based on 28-minute cycle for NX System for general surgical instruments. Calculation actored 18" x 8" x 2" trays times the number of loads completed in 8 hours in STERRAD NX System. Peracetic acid tray compared was the directed-flow processing container/tray, with cycle time factored at 30 minutes. Final calculation is based on the number of directed-flow processing containers/trays times the number of loads completed in 8 hours in peracetic acid system.

OVER 15 YEARS OF PROVEN PERFORMANCE. The STERRAD 100S System can single-handedly sterilize heat- and moisture-sensitive devices in 55 minutes. 51 trays can be sterilized with the STERRAD 100S System in the time it takes to complete 34 trays with VHP or 6 trays with EtO.* Our proven, low temperature hydrogen peroxide gas plasma technology efficiently eliminates the potential hazard of toxic residue, ensuring a safe working environment.

ACHIEVING AND MAINTAINING EXCELLENCE IN STERILIzATION. Our full range of supplies and consumables enables your STERRAD Systems to run at maximum productivity. Advanced Sterilization Products, division of Ethicon, Inc., offers Sterilant in safe, easy-to-use cassettes; fast-acting Biological and Chemical Indicators; and a full line of accessories, including pouches, rolls, trays, mats, and holders.

STERILANTOur Proprietary Technology for Effective Sterilization Our proprietary technology utilizes low temperature hydrogen peroxide gas plasma for terminal sterilization of medical devices, with no toxic residue. Hydrogen peroxide gas plasma has been proven to be gentler on devices than peracetic acid and steam. Best of all, our Sterilant comes in cassettes that can be easily inserted into the system. This gives system users and operators added convenience and yet another advantage over other sterilization methods. unlike some other sterilization modalities, STERRAD Systems cassettes can be transported via ground or air shipment.

BIOLOGICAL AND CHEMICAL INDICATORSYour Assurance of Proper Sterilization The STERRAD CYCLESuRE 24 Biological Indicator (BI)* provides evidence that proper sterilization conditions are achieved in just 24 hours. The chemical indicator on the BI vial cap changes from red to golden yellow, confirming exposure to hydrogen peroxide. The unique design of the CYCLESuRE 24 BI eliminates the manual testing process. ASP also offers the STERRAD SEALSuRE Chemical Indicator Tape, which uses an exclusive indicator ink technology for superior performance and color stability, and STERRAD Chemical Indicator Strips. The distinct red-to-golden yellow color change following processing enables the user to know with confidence that the instrument load has been properly exposed to hydrogen peroxide.

TYVEk POuCHES AND ROLLSOptimal Flexibility of Chemical Indicators in a Pouch We offer durable Tyvek Pouches and Rolls that provide the convenience of a built-in STERRAD Chemical Indicator to simplify confirmation that instruments have been exposed to hydrogen peroxide. Pouches have a triple-sealed design for three independent barriers to contamination, with a convenient thumb notch for easy opening, and are offered in a broad range of sizes, making it easy to double-pouch special instrumentation. Theyre available in a wide variety of styles, including self-seal and heat-seal styles, to meet most every instrument need. Tyvek is a registered trademark of E.I. DuPont de Nemours and Company for its brand of protective material.

INSTRuMENT TRAYS, MATS, AND HOLDERSMaximum Protection for Your Valuable Medical Devices APTIMAX Instrument Trays offer optimal protection for your instruments and are available in a variety of sizes to fit your instrument inventory.
