A disposable sterilizer mechanical air removal test pack comprising an outer container in the form of a box having a definite shape and being formed of a relatively air and steam permeable material coated with a form-stabilizing layer of a relatively air and steam impermeable material, and a body of relatively air and steam permeable material enclosed in the box. An indicator means is arranged in the body of material for indicating when contact with steam has taken place. The box includes a plurality of closure flaps which provide interruptions which control and direct the flow of steam into and air out of the interior of the body of material with the flow of steam and air occurring predominantly in a lateral direction through the body of material.

A disposable sterilizer mechanical air removal test pack, said pack comprising an outer container in the form of a box having a definite stable shape and being formed of a relatively steam and air permeable material coated with a form-stabilizing layer of a relatively steam and air impermeable material, and a body of steam and air permeable material having indicator means arranged to be contacted by steam permeating said material during a steam high vacuum/vacuum purge sterilizing cycle of a sterilizer for indicating whether such contact with steam has taken place and to what extent, if any, air was present in said material and interfered with such contact with steam; said body being enclosed in said box and said box being constructed to include a plurality of closure flaps which provide interruptions which control and direct the flow of steam access to and air egress from the interior of said body, with said steam and air flow occurring predominantly in a lateral or horizontal direction through and between said body of relatively steam and air permeable material, wherein said form-stabilizing layer causes the shape of the box to remain stable during and following exposure of said box to said steam sterilizing cycle. A disposable sterilizer mechanical air removal test pack, said pack comprising an outer container in the form of a box having a definite stable shape and being formed of a relatively steam and air permeable material coated with a form-stabilizing layer of a relatively air impermeable material, said box having a plurality of edge or side surfaces and a planar top and bottom surface, and a body of relatively steam and permeable material having indicator means arranged therein to be contacted by steam permeating said body of relatively steam and air permeable material during a steam high vacuum/vacuum purge sterilizing cycle of a sterilizer for indicating whether such contact with steam has taken place and to what extend, if any, air was present in said body of relatively steam and air permeable material and interfered with such contact with steam; said body being enclosed in said box and said box being constructed to include a plurality of closure flaps positioned at the edges of said box and which closure flaps provide interruptions which control and direct the flow of steam access to and air egress from the interior of said body, wherein said form-stabilizing layer causes the shape of the box to remain stable during and following exposure of said box to said steam sterilizing cycle.
