Q What's the difference between moisture on the outside or inside of the packs, and what causes this to happen?

A Moisture on the outside of the surface of packages could be the result of condensate and means you have a wet load, which is the result of sterilizer malfunction and/or poor steam quality. Redo the entire load, which potentially is open to contamination. Moisture on the inside of a pack means you have a wet pack, which is the result of improper pack set-up, packaging and loading. You need only redo the affected package.
