Revital-Ox RESERT High Level Disinfectant-Chemosterilant
Revital-Ox RESERT High Level Disinfectant - Chemosterilant is a reusable high level disinfectant for processing heat sensitive, semi-critical medical devices, for which alternative methods of terminal processing are not suitable or available. It is a ready-to-use, fast, safe alternative to commonly used aldehyde [glutaraldehyde and ortho-phthalaldehyde (OPA)] solutions. Revital-Ox RESERT HLD-Chemosterilant is an oxidative chemistry, using 2% Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide (AHP), eliminating staff and patient exposure hazards associated with aldehyde-based HLD solutions.

Revital-Ox RESERT R60 Solution Test Strip
The Revital-Ox® RESERT® R60 Solution Test Strip is a chemical indicator designed exclusively to indicate whether hydrogen peroxide, the active ingredient in RESERT High Level Disinfectant Solutions, is above the minimum recommended concentration (MRC) of 1.5%.
- Enables exclusive monitoring of Revital-Ox™ RESERT® High Level Disinfectant Solutions
- Demonstrates that the minimum recommended concentration (MRC) of hydrogen peroxide is present at time of use
- Facilitates correct interpretation of results
How Revital-Ox® RESERT® R60 Solution Test Strip Works
The technology of the strip is based on a colorimetric sulfite-peroxide reaction. Immediately upon immersion in Revital-Ox® RESERT® Solution*, the Revital-Ox® RESERT® R60 Solution Test Strip will turn from yellow to blue/purple. The blue/purple coloration will remain throughout the 60 second development time if the solution is above the minimum recommended concentration (MRC) of 1.5% hydrogen peroxide. When the solution is at or below the MRC, the test strip will show non-uniform areas of blue/purple and pink or may remain yellow.
Why Revital-Ox® RESERT® R60 Solution Test Strip?
RESERT® High-Level Disinfectant Solutions should be tested before each usage in order to guard against dilution, which may lower the hydrogen peroxide concentration of the solution below its MRC.
