Intended Use
Terragene Bionova® SCBI (BT96) is a self-contained biological indicator inoculated with viable 10% Geobacillus stearothermophilus bacterial spores and is intended for monitoring the efficacy of vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilization processes. BT96 has Super Rapid readout at 30 minutes at 60°C. Terragene Bionova® Reader Incubators (IC10/20FRLCD, Mini-Bio) incubate at 60°C and 37°C and read the Terragene Bionova® SCBI for fluorescent results at the times prescribed in the User Manuals. Terragene Chemdye® (CD42) is a chemical process indicator intended for monitoring the efficacy of vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilization processes. The chemical indicator changes from red to yellow for CD42 to indicate that the conditions of the cycle have been met. Terragene Cintape® CT40 is a chemical process indicator tape intended for monitoring the efficacy of Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide sterilization processes. The indicating tape changes from purple to green when exposure to vaporized hydrogen peroxide. The self-contained biological indicator and chemical processing indicators are intended for use with the STERLINK™ FPS-15s Plus when operating in chamber mode.
Device Description
Terragene® Bionova® BT96 Fluorescence Super Rapid Readout Biological Indicators are singleuse Self-Contained Biological Indicators (SCBIs) that consist of a polypropylene tube, a spore carrier, and a glass ampoule with a culture medium, enclosed with a colored cap. Each tube contains a population of Geobacillus stearothermophilus ATCC 7953 spores inoculated on a spore carrier, a plastic cap with holes and a barrier permeable to Plasma or Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide. Each BT96 has a Process Indicator on label that changes from purple to green when exposed to hydrogen peroxide. The Bionova® BT96 Biological Indicators have been designed for monitoring of Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide sterilization processes when used in conjunction with Bionova® IC10/20FR, IC10/20FRLCD or MiniBio Auto-Readers Incubators. Chemdye® CD42 Process Indicators (Type 1 according to ISO 11140-1:2014 standard) are singleuse chemical indicators that consist of plastic strips printed with indicator ink. These indicators have been designed to monitor Plasma or Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide sterilization processes within loads, ensuring an adequate exposure to the sterilizing agent during the sterilization process and allowing to distinguish between processed and unprocessed items. Cintape® CT40 Process Indicators (Type 1 according to ISO 11140-1:2014 standard) are singleuse chemical indicators that consist of a roll of self-adhesive plastic tape printed with indicator ink. These indicators have been designed to monitor Plasma or Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide sterilization processes, ensuring an adequate exposure to the sterilizing agent during the sterilization process and allowing to distinguish between processed and unprocessed items. The adhesive component of the tape allows the adhesion to different types of packaging and wraps, such as cloth, paper and plastic.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on traditional biological and chemical indicators and reader incubators, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No
This device is a biological and chemical indicator used to monitor the efficacy of sterilization processes, not to treat or diagnose patients.

No

The devices described (biological and chemical indicators) are used to monitor the efficacy of sterilization processes, not to diagnose a disease or condition in a patient.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components such as polypropylene tubes, spore carriers, glass ampoules, plastic strips, and adhesive tape, which are hardware. The device is not solely software.

Based on the provided text, these devices are not In Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use of these devices is to monitor the efficacy of sterilization processes for medical devices. They are used to confirm that the sterilization equipment is functioning correctly and that items have been adequately exposed to the sterilizing agent.
  • Mechanism of Action:
    • The biological indicator (BT96) uses bacterial spores to assess if the sterilization process killed the spores.
    • The chemical indicators (CD42 and CT40) use a chemical reaction (color change) to indicate exposure to the sterilizing agent.
  • IVD Definition: An In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) is a medical device that is intended for use in the examination of specimens derived from the human body in order to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.

These devices do not examine specimens from the human body. They are used to assess the performance of a sterilization process, which is a critical step in preparing medical devices for use on patients, but they are not used to diagnose or monitor a patient's health condition.

Dear Candace Cederman:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

3. Device Description

Terragene® Bionova® BT96 Fluorescence Super Rapid Readout Biological Indicators are singleuse Self-Contained Biological Indicators (SCBIs) that consist of a polypropylene tube, a spore carrier, and a glass ampoule with a culture medium, enclosed with a colored cap. Each tube contains a population of Geobacillus stearothermophilus ATCC 7953 spores inoculated on a spore carrier, a plastic cap with holes and a barrier permeable to Plasma or Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide. Each BT96 has a Process Indicator on label that changes from purple to green when exposed to hydrogen peroxide. The Bionova® BT96 Biological Indicators have been designed for monitoring of Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide sterilization processes when used in conjunction with Bionova® IC10/20FR, IC10/20FRLCD or MiniBio Auto-Readers Incubators.

Chemdye® CD42 Process Indicators (Type 1 according to ISO 11140-1:2014 standard) are singleuse chemical indicators that consist of plastic strips printed with indicator ink. These indicators have been designed to monitor Plasma or Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide sterilization processes within loads, ensuring an adequate exposure to the sterilizing agent during the sterilization process and allowing to distinguish between processed and unprocessed items.

Cintape® CT40 Process Indicators (Type 1 according to ISO 11140-1:2014 standard) are singleuse chemical indicators that consist of a roll of self-adhesive plastic tape printed with indicator ink.
