## Regulatory Identification

The Terragene Bionova Photon Biological Indicator (BT225) and Terragene Bionova Photon Auto-Reader Incubator (BPH) is a biological sterilization indicator with indirect growth detection. It is a self-contained biological indicator (SCBI) inoculated with Geobacillus stearothermophilus spores, intended for routine monitoring of the efficacy of steam sterilization processes (gravity-displacement and dynamic-air-removal cycles). The system uses fluorescence technology to provide a 7-second readout of sterilization efficacy.

## Special Controls

In combination with the general controls of the FD&C Act, the biological sterilization indicator with indirect growth detection is subject to the following special controls:
