Interscience colony counter delivers accuracy with comfort

Published: 2-Apr-2009

The Scan 100 colony counter from Interscience is equipped with an ergonomic hand-rest and dark field technology with long-lasting white LEDs and an adjustable touch surface. The adaptable unit also reads Petri dishes from 55 to 150mm and is made in France by Interscience.

The dark field technology allows users to count colonies on any kind of Petri dish, even light colonies on light agar. The long-lasting white LEDs are arranged in a circular shape just behind and around the dish, offering wide-angle lighting of the colonies with optimal contrast without reducing the image. The Scan 100 is equipped with a USB port for transmission of data to any software, without prior installation of a driver. A useful aspect of this colony counter is that operators can use their favourite pen to mark the colonies. A sound indicates each time a colony has been counted in order to avoid mistakes. The result is indicated on the screen and the user can also manually add or subtract a colony.
