Bags, Biohazard, Dual-tested
MG Scientific understands the sensitivity of handling Biohazardous wastes properly. These Red Dual-tested* Biohazard bags have the Biohazard and Infectious Waste Symbol imprinted in large Black print.
These Biohazard Waste bags are also
Dual-tested* based on federal and state legal requirements for use
- ASTM D1922 Elmendorf Tear test to exceed 480g of tear strength (MD and TD)
- ASTM D1709 Dart Impact tested to exceed 165g of dart drop strength
Why is Dual Testing is important?
The states of California, Florida, and Pennsylvania require that all biohazard waste bags meet/exceed Dual-test strength levels for transportation of biohazard waste within these states. Biohazard bags that comply with Dual-test standards are clearly printed with text similar to the ASTM statements above. By law, Standard biohazard waste bag cannot be used in California, Florida, and Pennsylvania nor in any state requiring Dual-test biohazard waste bags.
In addition to specific state requirements, Federal US DOT regulations require that biohazard waste bags transported across state lines (interstate transport) also meet/exceed Dual-test strength levels.
*Dual-tested— Biohazardous Waste Bag meets A.S.T.M. Dart Impact & Elmendorf Tear, DOT CFR 49 173-197, Flat Pack. For use in all 50 states & for interstate (between state) transport.
