MetriCide OPA Plus test strips provide a fast, reliable check of ortho-phthalaldehyde (OPA) concentration before each cycle. Approved for use with MetriCide OPA Plus solution, these single-use strips deliver a clear color-change in ~60-90 seconds to safeguard instrument reprocessing.

Features:

• Chemical indicator for OPA concentration (MRC 0.3%): Specifically calibrated to detect whether the OPA concentration in disinfectant bath remains at or above 0.3%, the threshold required for effective high-level disinfection.
• Rapid color-change result (60�90 seconds): Provides a quick, visual readout to confirm disinfectant potency before each use - no complex equipment required.
• Single-use, disposable strips: Each indicator pad is for one test only, ensuring hygiene and preventing cross-contamination between cycles.
• Tamper-evident bottle packaging: Strips are supplied in sealed bottles to maintain pad integrity and protect against humidity or degradation until use.
• Compatible only with MetriCide OPA Plus disinfectant: The strips are designed specifically for use with MetriCide (or other compatible OPA-based) high-level disinfectant solutions - ensuring optimized reactivity and accuracy.
• Essential for instrument reprocessing compliance: Helps ensure disinfection baths meet required concentration standards, supporting safe reuse of heat-sensitive, semi-critical medical devices like endoscopes, surgical instruments, and other reusable devices.
