Frequently asked questions
Are these test strips compatible with other disinfectant brands?
No, these test strips are formulated specifically to work exclusively with the McKesson OPA/28 High-Level Disinfectant Solution to ensure accurate verification of the minimum effective concentration.
How quickly can I get a reading?
The testing protocol is designed for efficiency: simply dip the strip for 3 seconds and read the results after 90 seconds.
How long do the strips last once the bottle is opened?
Once opened, the test strips are effective for 6 months. There is a convenient ‘Date Opened’ tracking field on the bottle label to help you manage this timeframe easily.
Is it easy to interpret the results?
Yes. Each bottle features a clear, color-coded comparison chart printed directly on the label. It provides an immediate ‘Pass’ or ‘Fail’ assessment, and the large indicator pad is designed to minimize any ambiguity.
Can I reuse the test strips?
No, these are strictly single-use test strips. You must use a fresh strip for every concentration test to ensure the safety and efficacy of your disinfectant solution.
Why is it important to use these before every application?
Testing for the Minimum Effective Concentration (MEC) prior to each use is a critical quality control step. It guarantees that the disinfectant solution remains potent enough to safely and effectively reprocess your medical instruments.
What is the shelf life of an unopened bottle?
Unopened bottles of the McKesson OPA Concentration Indicator have a shelf life of 18 months from the date of manufacture.
Where should these be used?
These indicators are essential for environments that rely on McKesson OPA/28 for instrument reprocessing, including:
How many test strips are included per bottle?
Each bottle contains 50 test strips, and your order includes 2 bottles per case.
How should I store these test strips?
To maintain accuracy, store the bottles in a cool, dry place and ensure the cap is closed tightly after each use to keep the strips protected from environmental factors until the 6-month expiration period after opening.
