What is it indicated for?

A chemical indicator for monitoring all cycles within the Sterilucent™ HC 80TT Hydrogen Peroxide Sterilizer (Lumen & Flexible), STERRAD® 100S (Standard & Long), 200, 100NX (Standard, Flex & Express), NX (Standard & Advanced), STERIS® VPRO™ 1, V-PRO™ 1 Plus (Lumen & Non-Lumen), VPRO® maX (Flexible, Lumen & Non-Lumen) and Sterilucent PSD-85 (Lumen & Non-Lumen). The VH2O2 Indicators are intended to be used by health care providers with sterilization wraps, containers, cassettes, or pouches to distinguish between processed and unprocessed units. Colors other than blue such as yellow/green should be treated as a process failure.

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