Designed for reliable and efficient counting of bacterial colonies and bacteriophage plaques growing on nutrient agar or nutrient discs/filter disks in Petri dishes. Provides ergonomic and relaxed working.
- For Petri dishes with Ø 90 mm (Ø 60 or 150 mm optional)
- Individually adjustable lighting, pressure sensitivity of the counter plate and volume
- LED lighting technology, absolutely glarefree and gentle on the eyes
- Three types of illumination: from below, from the side and incident light (optional)
- High colony transparency and differentiation (agar or nutrient discs/filter), even with transparent colonies
- No heating of the samples
- Natural colour reproduction
- Easy counting by marking the colonies (with any felt pen) on the Petri dish
- Acoustic counter control (with volume control)
- 4-digit LED-display (0 - 9999), clearly arranged foil keypad
- Average count calculation, data transfer via USB to PC. Imported in Excel, for further processing, storage and printing
Scope of supply: For 90 mm dia. Petri dishes: adapter (transparent) for illumination from below, adapter (black/white) for illumination from side, contrast disc (black), USB-cable, marker-pen with holder.
For enumeration of more than 50 Petri dishes per day, we recommend: schuett colonyQuant automatic colony counter (sample chamber, PC / laptop, software-license): The schuett colonyQuant is equipped with a high-resolution auto focus / auto-zoom colour camera. Evaluation of Petri dishes with agar Petri film, filters or nutrient pads, spiral plating or Hemmhof analysis. Storage of counting methods, documentation of results.
Suitable for automatic counting and documentation of Petri dishes or nutrient pads, covered with smallest colonies (min. 0.05 mm diameter), mixed cultures. Connection to existing LIM system possible. Test evaluation of customer-specific plates in the customer's own laboratory possible before purchase.
