Camera: 1 megapixel - zoom x 28 Counting on Ø 55 - 90 mm round Petri dishes Counting on pour, surface, Spiral, circle mode plated Petri dishes Counting on chromogenic agar Inhibition zone reader Counting range Pour and surface plating Counting of pour and surface plating mode on Ø 55 - 90 mm Petri dishes Spiral plating Counting of Spiral plating mode on Ø 55 - 90 mm Petri dishes Circle plating Counting of circle plating mode on Ø 55 - 90 mm Petri dishes Chromogenic agar Detection up to 7 colours on the same dish. The selection of the colour can be set directly on that of the characteristic colony. A slider adjusts the sensitivity. The reading of chromogenic media allows the detection of Salmonella on XLD medium and E.Coli on TBX medium.
