Crosstex offers a full line of Mini Spore Strips for use in monitoring sterilization processes. Mini Spore Strips consist of inoculated filter paper, 2 mm x 10 mm, packaged in glassine peel pouches or envelopes. The glassine packaging provides protection from environmental contaminants during transport post exposure. The Mini Spore Strips can be easily removed from the glassine pouch by tearing or peeling the pouch open for transfer to culture media or challenge device assembly.

The most popular Mini Spore Strips are manufactured using state of the art equipment, which provides assurance that each glassine pouch contains a BI consistent in population, purity and dimension. Mini Spore Strips are packaged in shelf packs of 100 and labeled with a 24 month shelf-life. Store Mini Spore Strips under room temperature conditions (15 30ºC). Each pack is accompanied by a certificate of analysis. Mini Spore Strips are certified for population, purity, and resistance (D-value, Z-value, survival and kill where applicable).
