Advisory Committee Statement

Requested a modification in the type of biological indicator used in the sterility release of the Carbo-Seal AAP from the AMSCO Spordex Bacillus subtilis globigii spore strips to the 3M Healthcare Attest Bacillus subtilis globigii self-contained biological indicator. The stzated reason for the change is to reduce the incubation period from seven to two days, and to reduce the change of operator error by eliminating the possibilitry of contaimination that may occur when spore strips in glassine envelopes are transferred to growth medium.
