Vaportest Air Monitoring Badges are simple and effective devices that collect contaminants through the scientific principle of diffusion. They meet or exceed OSHA accuracy requirements of ±25% at 95% confidence level for many work contaminants.
Ethylene oxide is widely used to sterilise medical equipment and supplies. Exposure health effects can range from respiratory irritation to cancer and reproductive/mutagenic effects.
The Vaportest Ethylene Oxide Badges are ideal for all hospitals, veterinary clinics and sterile instrument manufacturers.
Exposure time: Anything from 15 minutes to 8 hours*
*Accurate exposure time must be recorded on the Analysis Request Form in order to be valid for analysis.
