Accuracy and repeatability
The counting of Petri dishes is long, tedious and can vary from one person to another.
The Scan 500 can count up to 1000 colonies in 1 second in a constant and repeatable mode. Counting accuracy reach up to 98%. The minimum colony size is 0.1 mm

Data Import
|
| SIL/LIMS connection | Bar-codes | dataLink | Scan 500 connects to the LIMS in bi-directionality and can be connected to the diluter and plater via dataLink traceability system. |
 |
Data Recording |
| CSV | After each approved counting, the Scan 500 automatically saves and exports the counting parameters and results to a CSV file. |
Data Export
|
|
Scan 500 offers multiple export possibilities to save manual input time. It also increases the security and quality of your analyses. Usually, Petri dishes are thrown away after counting and no further verification is possible in the event of a claim. With Scan 500, all reports are archived. Export your results to your PC or archive them in CSV, ExcelTM, OpenOfficeTM, PDF, SCA, BIO format. You can also export images from the camera in JPEG, PNG and BMP format. |
