Verify 3000 ppm peracetic acid levels for high-strength decontamination in pharmaceutical and biotech cleanrooms, equipment, and bioreactors with Indigo® high-range 3000 ppm PAA test strips.

Pharmaceutical and biotech manufacturing facilities rely on peracetic acid (PAA) at concentrations up to 3000 ppm for room decontamination, equipment sterilization, and bioreactor cleaning. These high-strength cycles are designed to eliminate bacteria, fungi, and spores that threaten aseptic production. Indigo® 3000 ppm peracetic acid test strips provide a fast, reliable check that solutions have reached the minimum required strength for validated decontamination protocols.

Applications include cleanroom decontamination, isolator disinfection, bioreactor vessel sterilization, and pharmaceutical-grade surface sanitation. In biotech research and production, verifying that peracetic acid concentrations are ≥1500–3000 ppm is critical for maintaining sterility assurance levels (SALs). These test strips give operators an immediate, on-site validation tool that supports batch release records, environmental monitoring programs, and contamination control strategies.

Best Practices for 3000ppm PAA Test Strips in Biotech Facilities

  • Test freshly prepared PAA batches before fogging or spray cycles.
  • Confirm concentration at ?1500 ppm for sporicidal activity, up to 3000 ppm as required by protocols.
  • Document all results in batch records or decontamination logs.
  • Train staff in safe handling and strip interpretation.
  • Store strips in a cool, dry place to maintain accuracy.

You can compare the chemical structures of peracetic acid (aka peroxyacetic acid), chemical formula C2H4O3, to acetic acid, hydrogen peroxide & most quaternary ammonium compounds using our 3D Molecular Model Builder.

Use our free Sanitizer Dilution Calculator to prepare accurate dilutions to any ppm level for any volume. Some knowledge of the metric system is required.
