Description
The Tuttnauer Bionova High-Capacity Incubator is a 12-position auto-reader incubator for biological indicators, built for practices and facilities that run frequent spore tests on their steam sterilizers. Two independently controlled incubation zones let you run two programs at once, so 20-minute and 1-hour rapid biological indicators can be processed simultaneously. Results print automatically for your sterilization records.
With twelve wells, the Bionova handles daily or per-load biological monitoring for multiple autoclaves without a backlog, making it a strong fit for surgery centers, hospitals, multi-location dental groups and veterinary hospitals that need fast, traceable sterilizer release.
