During mass vaccination of livestock where needles are re-used, several problems may occur:
• Disease transmission between animals
• Abscess and infection from bacterial contamination
• Needle stick injuries to you!
To reduce these risks the Stermatic System has been developed.
The Stericap is a unique, precision moulded, airtight container enclosing a plug of foam. This foam carries a liquid disinfecting agent.
As the needle passes through the Stericap, it is swabbed clean by the foam and coated with disinfectant that destroys bacterial and viral pathogens.
The Stericap has been tested extensively in both laboratory and field conditions where it has proved very effective against both bacterial and viral contaminants.
Tests show no effect on some live vaccines, this is because the Stericap cleans the outside of the needle and the injectable 'flushing action' cleaned the inside.
Do not use where disinfectants are contra-indicated.
The Stericap system has been used around the world by Government departments, major pharmaceutical companies, veterinary practices and major livestock operations for over 20 years.
Stericap contains 2.5% Gluteraldehyde & 5% Bardac22.
