Crosstex has purchased the sterilization monitoring business of ConFirm Monitoring Systems.
Crosstex's Sure-Check sterilization pouches have patent-pending class 4 internal/external multivariable indicators that validate all three criteria for instrument sterilization (time, temperature, and steam), as per International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards and Centers for Disease and Prevention (CDC) guidelines, the company said.
"Sure-Check pouches provide the most advanced chemical monitoring to confirm each sterilization cycle," said Andrew Whitehead, Crosstex senior vice president of sales and marketing, in a press release. "When combined with ConFirm's biological monitoring for daily or weekly testing of the sterilizer, healthcare professionals will have the ultimate in sterilization assurance for their practice."
