Where should a Bowie-Dick test be conducted?

  1. In Gravity Steam Sterilizers

  2. In Pre-vacuum Sterilizers

  3. In dynamic air removal steam sterilizers

  4. In Dry Heat Sterilizers

The correct answer is: In dynamic air removal steam sterilizers

A Bowie-Dick test should be conducted in dynamic air removal steam sterilizers. This test is used to detect air leaks, inadequate air removal, or steam penetration in pre-vacuum steam sterilizers. It helps verify the effectiveness of the sterilization process and ensure the sterilizer is functioning correctly. Conducting the Bowie-Dick test in other types of sterilizers like gravity steam sterilizers, dry heat sterilizers, or pre-vacuum sterilizers would not be appropriate since the test is specifically designed for use in dynamic air removal steam sterilizers.
