Product type: PCD‑A‑E1 Chemdye® Chemical Indicator for use in Helix‑PCD system
Main application: Monitoring ethylene oxide (EO) sterilization cycles; ensures safe release of hollow loads by verifying sterilant penetration
Key benefit: Provides clear color change (light blue → green) to confirm sterilization efficacy; incomplete color change indicates penetration failure and prevents load release
Technology / differentiator:
