Description
Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide® (AHP®) Indicator Strips are easy to use dip-and-read reagent strips to confirm the presence of the minimum recommended concentration of hydrogen peroxide, the active ingredient in AHP disinfectant solutions. AHP1750 Test Strips were DESIGNED for use with 7% AHP Surface Disinfectant Concentrate’s diluted to 1:40 (0.1750% or 1750ppm).

Direction For Use
Disinfection (1:40) 1. Dip the padded end of the test strip into the diluted solution and remove immediately. 2. At the same time start the timer and shake the strip in a whipping motion three times to prevent excess liquid pooling on the strip. 3. The test strip colour should match the colour block between 35 and 40 seconds to indicate a PASS. Sanitizing (1:128) 1. Dip the padded end of the test strip into the diluted solution and remove immediately. 2. At the same time start the timer and shake the strip in a whipping motion three times to prevent excess liquid pooling on the strip. 3. The test strip colour should match the colour block between 110 to 120 seconds (1 minute 50 seconds to 2 minutes) to indicate a PASS. NOTE: Delayed reading of the strip colour may invalidate the results. The strip colour will continue to darken after the read time.
Storage

Exposure of the uncovered strip to light and moisture may cause discoloration of the strip. Do not use the strip after the expiration date (opened or unopened).
