Call for quantity discounts 877-561-0500
Note: Spore ampoules must be kept refrigerated and ship overnight. These are specially made for monitoring liquid sterilization in steam autoclaves.
Must be used with Bionova IC10/20 incubator sold at Duraline BioSystems, Inc
Instructions for Use:
Place Mini Spore Ampules inside representative materials (containers of liquid) or within the autoclave chamber directly. Package or wrap product as usual, if applicable. Locate product or Mini Spore Ampules in most difficult location to sterilize, as outlined in your specific sterilization validation protocol or according to standard operating procedure. Run the cycle. After sterilization or exposure, remove Mini Spore Ampules or product from sterilizer. Allow product or Spore Ampules to cool to the touch. No activation is required.
Incubation: Place the processed Mini Spore Ampules, one Negative Control Ampule and one Positive Control (unprocessed Mini Spore Ampule) in a vertical position in an incubator at 60°C to 65°C for a minimum of 48 hours.
Monitoring: Examine the Mini Spore Ampules daily during incubation. Record observations. All positive Mini Spore Ampules should be disposed of immediately. Do not continue to incubate a positive Ampule. Continued growth may result in metabolism of amino acids in the absence of sugars, causing the pH to rise and result in color reversion that is visibly darker than a sterile unit. These should be considered as positive for growth (turbidity will be present).
Interpretation: Negative Control: The Negative Control Ampule should not exhibit a color change to Yellow and/or demonstrate turbidity. Utilize the Negative Control as a color comparison for the exposed Mini Spore Ampules, where applicable.
Positive Control Mini Spore Ampule: The Positive Control Ampule should exhibit a color change to Yellow and/or demonstrate turbidity. Utilize the Positive Control as a color comparison for the exposed Ampules, where applicable. If the positive control does not demonstrate a Yellow color and/or turbidity, the results for the test Ampules should not be considered valid. Verify incubation conditions were met.
Test Mini Spore Ampules: A passing sterilization cycle is indicated by a test Spore Ampule which retains its original Purple color and is free from turbidity. A failed sterilization cycle is indicated by turbidity and/or a color change to Yellow.
For unexpected positives, it is recommended that a Gram stain be performed. Gram positive rods are indicative for the indicator organism.

How do I look up disinfectant on List N?
How do I look up disinfectant on List N?
First, find the product registration number. This can be found on the product label or safety data sheet. Duraline posts most registrations in the Product Description field of the product page in our website. Second, go to the epa.gov website: https://cfpub.epa.gov/giwiz/disinfectants/index.c... and enter the first 2 parts of the registration number and click enter.
My product has 3 parts on the registration number and I can't find all 3 on the approved website for List N. Why?
My product has 3 parts on the registration number and I can't find all 3 on the approved website for List N. Why?
The first 2 parts of the EPA Registration Number are the primary numbers and represent the primary registration. Since different companies sell products with the same chemical composition and efficiency, only 1 brand or product name receives the primary number. The third part represents the distributor of the primary registration and is still on List N and is proven effective against SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19).
