Description of use

Bionova® IC10/20FR incubator has been designed to in-
cubate BT110 Rapid Readout Self-Contained Biological
Indicators (BIs) for Ethylene Oxide sterilization processes
control, BT220 and BT221 for Steam sterilization processes,
BT102 for Formaldehyde sterilization processes control,
BT95 for Plasma or Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide sterili-
zation and Super Rapid Readout Self-Contained Biological
Indicators BT222 and BT223 for Steam sterilization proces-
ses control.
Microorganisms contained within the Biological Indicators
vary depending on the sterilization process for which they
have been designed, therefore, incubation temperatures
differ depending on the indicator. Indicators for Ethylene
Oxide (EO) sterilization control, should be incubated at
37ºC, while those involved in the monitoring of the rest
of the sterilization processes should be incubated at 60ºC.
Simultaneous incubation of Bls for EO processes
control within Bls monitoring the other processes,
is not possible.
Bionova® IC10/20FR incubator allows easy and rapid
detection of positive and negative Biological Indicators.
Five incubation programs are available: 4 hours at 37ºC,
3 hours at 60 ºC, 2 hours at 60 ºC, 1 hour at 60 ºC and 30
minutes at 60 ºC. A positive result can also be evidenced
through color change of the culture medium, which turns
to yellow after 48 hours or 7 days of incubation at 60 ºC for
BT220/BT221/BT222/BT223/BT102/BT95 and after a 7-day
incubation at 37 ºC for BT110 BIs. Incubation times de-
pend on internal protocols of the laboratory or hospital.
The incubator allows selection of incubation time pro-
grams for two zones in an independent way. Zone 1 in-
cludes positions 1 to 6, and zone 2 comprises positions
7 to 12.
The IC10/20FR Bionova® incubator contains a special ca-
vity to run quantitative readings of the Chemdye® PRO1
System, destined to surface cleaning and contamination
control.
Bionova® IC10/20FR auto-reader not only allows the detec-

tion of results, but also provides a printed ticket to record
them. In addition, the auto-reader can be connected to
computers by USB. This allows to link the results with the
Bionova® Automatic readout and traceability system for
sterilization biological indicators program. To download
the lastest software version go to:

tion-processes/incubators/ic1020f, you can also download
its operator's manual from there.
