CHEMDYE SWE 3.0MM

Description

Chemdye® SWE high-absorption swabs for use with the Chemdye® PRO1 ENDO system.

Usage
Chemdye® SWE high-absorption swabs are designed for sampling the internal channels of cannulated instruments. The swab is introduced through the lumen of the cannula to collect residual contamination that may remain following the cleaning process. When used with the Chemdye® PRO1 ENDO system, these swabs enable assessment of cleaning effectiveness by detecting and quantifying residual protein within internal channels.

Precautions

• Always handle swabs while wearing gloves.
• Do not open packaging until immediately before use.
• Single-use only; do not reuse or re-incubate.
• Do not sample surfaces that have not undergone a cleaning process or areas with visible contamination.
• Avoid touching the absorbent tip or the internal surfaces of the device. Use appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves and a mask, and follow standard hygiene practices.
• Do not freeze.
• Chemdye® SWE swabs are intended for use exclusively with the Chemdye® PRO1 ENDO system.

High concentrations of alkaline detergents may, in certain cases, result in false-negative readings. Oxidising disinfectants (such as hydrogen peroxide or peracetic acid) may cause false-positive colour reactions. Although Chemdye® PRO1 ENDO demonstrates high sensitivity, it is intended for post-cleaning monitoring of internal channels and does not confirm device sterility.
