1. Process indicators
These indicators, e.g. autoclave tape, are settled on the surface of the bundles which will be disinfected. These indicators are not relevant to give Information about the aftereffect of the sterilization procedure, yet just record that the bundle has passed the sterilization procedure (strategic Information, no Information about sterility).
2. Indicators for use in particular tests
Those indicators have execution necessities, which are not portrayed in the above Standard but rather in different Standards, e.g. the BD-test as per EN 285 or the helix test as indicated by EN 867–5 Hollow Load, which complies with the gke clump observing System. These tests have regularly higher prerequisites than indicators of class 3 to 6 portrayed later on. Those particular tests comprise of a PCD (process challenge gadget) with a chemical marker embedded. Their determinations are portrayed in particular Standards. The test is done just in the mix utilizing the marker within the predefined PCD. It doesn’t bode well to decide the class of the pointer in the PCD since dependably the entire System comprising of PCD and the marker inside is tried for Special qualities.
The details of class 3 to 6 indicators have totally extraordinary qualities from those indicators set in the PCD to shape a class 2 marker. For instance class 5 and 6 indicators for steam sterilization forms are tried in dry warmth where they ought not change their shading to an indistinguishable shading from in steam sterilization forms. They will change their shading in steam sterilization procedures to pass conditions regardless of the possibility that a high measure of non condensable gasses (NCG) is available, unless NCG inside the bundle don’t separate after steam Condensed. Chemical sterilization indicators in PCDs have totally extraordinary necessities. Their shading change must be adjusted to the stickiness within the PCD when utilized as a part of steam sterilization forms. Prerequisites determined in class 2 indicators portray the recognition of NCG which are
not determined in the necessities of class 3 to 6 indicators. The chemical marker strips utilized as a part of gke PCDs are consumables for those indicators (class 2) and have higher necessities than the indicators portrayed in class 5 or 6. Indicators of class 5 or 6 don’t have particular prerequisites to NCG which are important for those indicators which are utilized within PCDs. The indicators in those PCD Systems satisfy the details of class 5 or 6 yet not the other way around.
3. Single variable indicators
To screen one parameter, e.g. an accomplished temperature. These indicators are utilized just at times in sterilization forms.
