Product description
Bionova
IC10/20FRLCD Auto-reader has been designed for the
®
incubation and automatic readout of Terragene
Rapid and Ultra Rapid Self-contained biological indicators
(SCBIs) appropriate for a wide range of sterilization control
applications, and for the incubation and automatic readout
of Hygiene Monitoring System Indicators (Protein pens)
appropriate for surface cleaning and contamination control
applications.
Bionova
IC10/20FRLCD 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
IC10/20FRLCD allows the selection of independent
®
incubation times for each of its 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.
Simultaneous incubation of SCBIs for monitoring
EO processes along with SCBIs for monitoring
other sterilization processes is not possible.

new available Indicators for your Bionova
Bionova
IC10/20FRLCD Auto-reader allows easy and rapid
®
detection of positive and negative SCBIs using advanced
fluorescence 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
IC10/20FRLCD Auto-reader also provides a printed
®
ticket each time an incubation is completed for recording
the results. This allows for easy result management, for
documentation compliance and safe-keeping.
