High Definition Colony Counter with Color

Introduction

This new advanced colony counter is applicable to a wide range of applications in food safety, pharmacology, environmental monitoring and clinical diagnostics. The SCAN 4000 can be used with virtually all types of dishes and culture media and complies fully with CFR21 part 11.
The heart of the system is the shadow free lighting design which uses a reflective diffusing dome overhead of the sample to produce uniform shadow free illumination without artefacts from the edges of the agar and the dish. This is in addition to various other lighting arrangements from above and below the sample. The high resolution color CCD camera produces incredibly high fidelity images of the target colonies. The integral image analysis software provides many automated functions via a windows interface. Define exclusion zones, different illumination scenarios, cluster separation and much more with the click of a mouse.
The system enables reading of inhibition zones with peni-cylinders, agar wells or paper disks. For bacteriology you can memorize your masks and analyze your dish in seconds visualizing antibiotic sensitivity as Red - resistant; Yellow intemediate; Green sensitive. The HD color image of the Petri dish in automatically saved.
The Scan® 4000 can read the Petri dishes up to 150 mm diameter and 120 mm square Petri dishes making it the most adaptable colony counter currently available.

The Scan® software complies with the FDA guidelines, for electronic signatures, audit trail and secure data. A supervisor level manages user accounts and passwords.
