Sterin Insect Irradiation indicators provide positive, visual verification of irradiation. The indicators are manufactured using Gafchromic film.

Ashland designed the indicators for the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) program to provide visual verification of irradiation.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Sterin shows wether a container with insects has been irradiated when it’s attached to the container. Before the insects are radiated, the indicator reads “NOT IRRADIATED”, but after the insects are radiated, it reads “RADIATED”.

One box of Sterin, contains 500 indicators and has a shelf life of 3 years.
