How It Works
Before irradiation, attach the AccuTag™ indicator to the blood bag. The dot starts out white. When the AccuTag™ indicator is exposed to ionizing radiation, the central dot changes from white to blue. That’s it! no extra steps. AccuTag™ indicators are designed to indicate minimum 15 Gy exposure at a 25 Gy target dose, aligning with FDA standards and your facility's protocols. It’s a quick, visual way to confirm that the proper dosage of irradiation has occurred.

Important Notes
-
AccuTag™ indicators should not be considered as radiation dosimeters. They serve as visual, semi-quantitative indicators of irradiation exposure and should be used in conjunction with validated dosimetry systems.span>
-
Regular maintenance of your irradiator is recommended to ensure consistent results.
