The bags are usually preprinted with appropriate hazard signs or other safety information for additional security. They may also feature a write-on panel for further identification and labelling.TST Strip Autoclave 121 deg C, 15mins Type 6 2342 (100strips) can be used to validate that the sterilisation process has been successful, the indicator changes colour when successfully completed.

There are two versions either low temperature (suitable for use up to 121°C) or high temperature versions (up to 134°C) an appropriate bag should be selected based on the items being sterilised and the autoclaves settings.
