BPH Bionova Photon Auto-Reader Incubator

BPH-Photon Incubator: Instant Self-contained Biological Indicator for Steam Sterilization Processes

Product Description: The Terragene® Bionova® Photon Auto-reader Incubator (BPH) is the ultimate solution for monitoring steam sterilization cycles. Designed for the incubation and automatic readout of the Bionova® Photon line of Self-contained Biological Indicators (SCBIs), this advanced incubator offers instant results using cutting-edge fluorescence techniques. With two independent readout positions, it ensures precise and rapid detection of positive and negative SCBIs.

Featuring built-in USB, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth® technology, the Bionova® Photon Auto-reader Incubator ensures seamless connectivity for easy documentation compliance and traceability. Electronic tickets (e-tickets) generated for each readout can be accessed via compatible devices.

Key Features:

•  Instant Results: Provides readout results within seconds.
•  Advanced Detection: Uses fluorescence techniques for accurate results.
•  Dual Readout Positions: Two independent positions for simultaneous readings.
•  Connectivity: Equipped with USB, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth® for seamless data transfer.
•  Easy Documentation: E-tickets for each readout process.

Instructions for Use:

1. Placement: Ensure stable positioning, away from sunlight, vibrations, and corrosive substances.
2. Power On: Connect to a power source and verify all positions are empty.
3. Set-Up: Use the Bionova® Wireless Assistant for date and time setup.
4. Initialization: Wait for completion of the initialization sequence.
5. Auto-Test: Perform an internal status check for each position.
6. Reading Process: Place an SCBI in the position to start the readout process.
7. Results: Positive results trigger a red indicator and alarm, while negative results trigger a green indicator.

BT225-Photon: 7-Second Self-Contained Biological Indicator for Steam

Product Description: Ensure the efficacy of your steam sterilization processes with the Terragene® Bionova® Photon Biological Indicator (BT225). This 7-second readout Self-Contained Biological Indicator (SCBI) is inoculated with a minimum of 10^6 viable Geobacillus stearothermophilus bacterial spores, providing a rapid and reliable method for routine monitoring.

The BT225 SCBI is designed for use in both gravity-displacement and dynamic-air-removal steam sterilization cycles. It features a chemical process indicator that changes color from pink to brown when exposed to steam, confirming successful exposure.

Key Features:

•  Rapid Readout: Provides results in just 7 seconds.
•  High Efficacy: Inoculated with 10^6 viable Geobacillus stearothermophilus spores.
•  Versatile: Suitable for gravity-displacement and dynamic-air-removal cycles.
•  Chemical Indicator: Color change from pink to brown confirms exposure.

Steam Sterilization Cycles:

•  Gravity-Displacement: 
  • 132°C, 25 minutes
  • 132°C, 15 minutes
  • 132°C, 10 minutes
  • 135°C, 10 minutes
•  Dynamic-Air-Removal: 
  • 132°C, 4 minutes
  • 135°C, 3 minutes

Incubation and Readout: The BT225 SCBI is incubated at 60°C and read by the Terragene® Bionova® Photon Auto-reader Incubator (BPH), ensuring reliable performance for steam sterilization monitoring. Classified as Class II by the FDA, it provides peace of mind for your sterilization processes.
