Product Description
3M 1292-S – Attest Rapid Steam Biological Indicator, Brown Cap, Sterile, 3 hr, 300/BX, 2 BX/CS
3M 1292-S Attest Rapid Steam Biological Indicator
The 3M Attest 1292-S Rapid Readout Biological Indicator for Steam is a fast (3 hour readout), reliable, and convenient biological indicator for validating and monitoring steam sterilization processes when used in conjunction with the 3M Attest 293 or 290 Auto-readers. The Attest 1292-S may be used as a component of the quality system for a steam sterilization process that ensures that medical devices or pharmaceutical products are processed per the manufacturers specifi cations and comply with the requirements of national and international sterilization standards. The self-contained design of the Attest 1292-S reduces testing time and eliminates the potential for cross-contamination associated with the culturing of conventional spore strips. The fl uorescent readout can provide confi rmation of an acceptable cycle after only 3 hours of incubation.
The Attest 1292-S provides fast, reliable results that allow the potential for inventory optimization with the assurance of using a biological indicator system for validating and monitoring the sterilization process.
The Attest 1292-S has been validated as an effective biological monitor for 132? (270?) vacuum-assisted and 121? (250?) gravity steam sterilization processes under specifi c test conditions. The Attest 1292-S could also be used to monitor other industrial steam sterilization processes, such as 134? (273?), with appropriate testing and validation by the end user. The suitability of the Attest 1292-S for monitoring any industrial steam sterilization process must be verifi ed and documented by the end user.
Note: The 3M Attest Biological Indicator 1292-S for Steam Sterilization is only compatible with the 3M Attest 390 Auto-reader.

3M 1292-S Attest Rapid Steam Biological Indicator Instructions for Use
The following information is provided with the Attest 1292-S biological indicators and provides specifi c use instructions.
Identifi cation and Expiration Date: Each biological indicator will be labeled with a lot code that also provides the expiration date information. The format of this code is noted below:
YYYY-MM XX
Y denotes the Year the product will expire; M denotes the Month the product will expire (last day of that month); XX is a 3M lot specifi c code. For example:
2010-03 JK
represents a product with production code JK that will expire on March 31, 2010. The entire lot code (8 characters) must be used to describe or document the product lot. Biological indicators that are beyond their expiration date should not be used.
Inspection: Damaged biological indicators may produce erroneous results. Indicators can be damaged in shipping, or in handling (e.g. during placement into, or extraction from, a product or a process challenge device); damage by pallet handling before or after processing). Careful inspection of the biological indicator both before and after processing (before crushing the ampoule) is critical. (Note: Please follow safety precautions described in WARNING section when inspecting indicators that have been exposed to the sterilization process).
Carefully inspect each biological indicator for:
- Missing or damaged components (e.g. cap fi lter, spore strip, media ampoule, plastic sleeve).
- The integrity of the glass ampoule is critical. Inspect for any signs of breakage including wet spore strip, wet or dried residual media inside vial, or apparent lack of media in the ampoule.
Any damaged or suspect biological indicators should be discarded. Any results obtained from damaged biological indicators should be considered suspect.
