• Estimated properties protections synthetic blood
• Simulates a wet contact on surgical dress or sheets with blood

The Quick Barrier Tester (QBT) measures the protective properties of materials when exposed to synthetic blood. It is extremely important to test the barrier level posed to micro organisms by the fabric used for medical clothing and gowns, both after manufacturing and during the cleaning process.

The QBT simulates the contact of surgical clothing and sheets with blood. This process can be evaluated under different levels of pressure (from 1 to 14kPa).

This pressure is applied directly to the fabric in order to make the synthetic blood penetrate. The highest pressure setting on which the liquid does not affect the fabric is determined.
