SimPlate®
An improved counting method developed to overcome the limitations of
other counting methods, the SimPlate system with Binary Detection
TechnologyTM is a technological advancement in counting
methods. The combination of pre-measured media and patented plating
device provide accurate, easy-to-read results days faster than agar
plate or film methods.
Key Advantages:
- Faster Results (see diagram for comparison)
- Fewer Dilutions, with a maximum counting range of 738
- Easy to Prepare, SimPlate media comes pre-measured and
ready-to-hydrate
- Easy to Read Results are distinguishable at a glance
- Reproducible, provides consistency across users
- Less Interference, the SimPlate device minimises the effects of swarming bacteria and spreading molds
- AOAC Approvals for TPC, E.coli Coliforms, and Yeast and Molds
Colony Counters
Colony counters provide easier reading, faster results and reduces labour for microbial enumeration.
Scan® 100 is an advanced manual colony counter. Scan 100 incorporates dark field lighting technology for visual clarity and reading comfort, and results can be exported via USB.
Scan® 500 is a high-tech automatic colony counter. It counts colonies on a Petri dish in less than half a second and gives you quick, accurate, complete and traceable reading of the results.
With its CCD camera and a powerful software, it allows the automatic counting of poured plates, spread plates and Spiral® plates.
Scan® 1200 offers even higher resolution, and counts all colonies, even on smallest poured, spread, filtration membrane and Spiral® Petri dishes. Scan 1200 is also compatible with various proprietary plate such as PetriFilm™.
Micro PRO™
The Micro PRO™ is an automated, flow cytometry based optical system specially designed for rapid microbial detection and enumeration.
Key Features of the Micro PRO™ Include:
- Full automation – up to 42 samples can be loaded at one time and the system automatically performs reagent additions, mixing, and sample injection.
- A broad count range of 101 to 106 cfu/mL.
- Both quantitative and qualitative measurements.
- Counts/mL results within 4 minutes for direct enumeration protocols.
