Terragene Bowie Dick Kit (120 Cards & Holder) is a complete steam sterilizer efficacy testing system used to verify the adequate air removal and steam penetration in pre-vacuum (Class B) autoclaves. Each Bowie Dick test card contains a chemical indicator that produces a uniform color change only when steam fully penetrates the test pack, confirming the sterilizer is performing correctly before processing patient loads.
