Validation Kits for endoscope reprocessors (AERs – Automated Endoscope Reprocessors)

Our endoscopy validation kits have been designed to simplify on-site testing. All of the components for validation are included and have been tested to work together accurately. A full range of Logistics solutions ensure representative results.

Kits contain elements required to complete on-site testing:

• Disinfection efficacy surrogates
• Self-disinfection test surrogates
• Test soils
• Pre-labelled bottles
• Other consumables as required
• Customised kits available
• Annual and quarterly validation kits available as required
• Validation kits delivered/collected from site
• Kits provided in line with HTM01-06, ISO 15883, WHTM 01-06

Sterility testing is a quality control process used in healthcare settings to verify efficacy of cleaning processes, ensuring the introduction of contaminants is prevented and contamination risks reduced.

Bioburden testing is similar to sterility however instead it identifies and quantifies viable microorganisms on a medical device before it is sterilised.

We’ve developed analytical methods which are based on The Sterilisation of Healthcare Products: BS EN ISO 11737-1:2019 for bioburden testing and BS EN ISO 11737-2:2019 for sterility testing.
