Description
Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide (AHP) Indicator Test Strips are easy to use dip-and-read reagent strips for a pass or fail determination of hydrogen peroxide concentration in AHP disinfectant solutions for variety of applications.
Principle of the Test
Reaction of the AHP Test is based on a proprietary coupling system where the AHP reacts with an iodide salt and a cou- pler to form a brown colored complex.
Direction for Uses
Dip the strip into the test solution for one second, making sure that the reagent pad is fully wet. Gently shake off the excess solution. Wait for 60 seconds then compare the colour on the reagent pad with the reference colour block. If the colour on the reagent pad is lighter than the refer- ence colour block for a “PASS”, then the concentration of hydrogen peroxide is below the minimum recommended concentration for the AHP solution and should be discarded. “FAIL” colour blocks are provided only for reference and should not be used for measuring or quantifying the level of hydrogen peroxide in the AHP solution.
Storage
Store the Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide Indicator Test Strips at room temperature between 59°F and 86°F (15°C–30°C). Do not expose the strip to direct sun light.
Important Precautions
Keep the strip in the original container. Remove only the required strip before testing and immediately replace the cap tightly. Exposure of the uncovered strip to light and moisture may cause discoloration of the strip. Do not use the strip after the expiration date (opened or unopened). Do not touch the reagent pad with finger or any other surface. Once opened the test kits have a shelf life of 6 months. Unopened test kits have an 12 month shelf life.
