Instructions for Confirmatory Testing of 7% AHP Concentrate Surface Disinfectants
The Accelerated Hydrogen Peroxide Test Strip (Part No. AHP500) can be used for confirmatory testing when required
by facility protocol. These strips are easy to use dip-and-read reagents strips for a pass or fail determination of the
hydrogen peroxide concentration in the 7% AHP Concentrate Surface Disinfectant solution.
1. Remove a test strip and immediately close the container.
2. Dip the test strip into the Diluted AHP solution to be tested for 1-second ensuring that the reaction zone is
completely wetted.
3. Remove the test strip and shake of excess liquid.
4. Wait for 120-seconds then compare the reaction zone with the colour scale.
NOTE: The purpose of confirmatory testing is not to extend the shelf life beyond the 30-day claim. Should the test strip
show that the Diluted AHP Solution still meets the targeted level of hydrogen peroxide after 30 days the product
MUST still be disposed to ensure compliance with testing and label claims.
