Product description
Bionova
MiniBio Auto-reader has been designed for the
®
incubation and automatic readout of Terragene
Rapid and Ultra Rapid Self-contained biological indicator (SCBIs)
appropriate for a wide range of sterilization control applications.
Bionova
MiniBio allows two different incubation temperatures,
®
37 °C or 60 °C. Microorganisms contained within the SCBIs vary
depending on the sterilization process for which they have been
designed, therefore, incubation temperatures and incubation
times differ depending on the SCBI being used. Bionova
MiniBio allows independent time settings selection for each one
of the three incubation positions.
SCBIs for Ethylene Oxide (EO), should be incubated at 37 ºC,
while those used for the monitoring of the rest of the sterilization
processes should be incubated at 60 ºC.
S
imultaneous incubation of SCBIs for monitoring
EO processes along with SCBIs for monitoring other
sterilization processes is not possible.

techniques. A positive result can also be evidenced by culture
medium color change when performing extended incubations.
Read the instructions for use of each SCBI for more information.
The option to perform or not an extended incubation depends
on the internal protocols of each laboratory or hospital.
Bionova
each time an incubation is completed for recording the results.
This allows for easy result management, for documentation
compliance and safe-keeping.
