An automatic colony counter for significantly improved work quality

Scan® 1200 is suitable for any type of sample, and agar. It operates the automatic correction of any defects in the agar and the automatic separation of the confluent colonies. The pre-settings are customizable based on the type of agar. The brightness, contrast and sensitivity are automatically managed by the software.

Traceability and reproductibility: automatic export of the results to Excel™

Export to Excel™ and screenshots savings allows to consult and / or recount anytime you want. The LIMS connection and the barcode reader connection ensures traceability, essential to any quality analysis.

CFU Ranking according to their color

Once detected, CFU are analysed and ranked according to their color. Each class of colony is defined by a color and a user chosen name, interactively.

Thereafter, during the automatic counting, any detected CFU whose average color approaches the base color of a class is classified in this class. In addition to the number and concentration of total CFU sample, the results of a counting show the number and concentration of CFU per class. The names given by the user for the classes serve as reference in the results display.

High-performance and flexibility 

The Scan® software is user-friendly and efficient. Its use does not require any special training. All functions are combined in one window and only one button to count and one cursor to optimize enumeration are required.
