What is it indicated for?

Use the 3M™ Comply™ Hydrogen Peroxide Chemical Indicator 1248 as an internal pack process indicator to verify

exposure to vaporized hydrogen peroxide in the STERRAD® 100, 100S. NX® (Standard and Advanced cycles) and

100NX® (Standard. Flex. Express and Duo cycles) sterilization processes. The chemical indicator bar turns from blue to

pink after exposure to vaporized hydrogen peroxide.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
