British Standard Soil (BZ485)
Overview:
Biochemazone™’s British Standard Soil (BZ485) is a specialized artificial test soil formulated for cleaning validation of reusable medical devices. It is particularly suited for devices exposed to mucus and blood, such as those used in Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) procedures. BZ485 can be used independently or in combination with Defibrinated Blood Soil to simulate clinical soiling scenarios and ensure thorough validation of cleaning processes.
Intended Use:
- Cleaning validation of reusable medical devices, specifically those used in ENT procedures.
- Simulated soiling of medical devices exposed to mucus and blood for comprehensive cleaning verification studies.
Key Specifications:
- Composition:
- Purified proteins (hemoglobin, albumin).
- Polysaccharides and mucin.
- Salts (NaCl, KCl, and phosphate buffer).
- Pigments and artificial mucus components.
- Color: Reddish-brown when combined with Defibrinated Blood Soil.
- Compatibility: Designed for use alone or mixed with Defibrinated Blood Soil for enhanced simulation of clinical contaminants.
Features and Benefits:
- ENT-Specific Simulation: Accurately replicates mucus and blood contamination encountered during ENT procedures.
- Versatile Applications: Can be used independently or combined with blood-based soils to create a realistic challenge for cleaning validation.
- Regulatory Compliance: Supports ASTM F3208-20 standards and other international guidelines for cleaning validation of reusable medical devices.
- Stable and Reproducible: Scientifically formulated to ensure consistent and reliable cleaning validation results.
Applications:
- Cleaning validation of reusable medical devices such as ENT scopes, suction devices, and surgical instruments.
- Testing and validation of cleaning protocols for devices exposed to mucus and blood in clinical settings.
- Comparative evaluation of cleaning agents, detergents, and automated cleaning systems.
