"Autoclave Testing Service, Inc. | Biological Indicators | Standard Testing Programs | Chemical Indicators

The Standard Program testing is our most comprehensive program and also the most popular. This program offers a fresh spore test sent to your office each week, month, quarter, etc. as a timely reminder. This method of sterilizer testing is far superior to the test kits that are sent in bulk which are cheaper, but are often left in some corner “out-of-sight, out-of-mind”. Testing in a timely manner will avoid fines from your local health department (depending on the type of industry). Your original, personally signed test report is mailed upon completion. See complete list of features below which include Return Postage and Self-Addressed Forms and Envelopes. To view and compare all program choices side-by-side, see our Services page.
