Real-time laboratory incubator ScanStation 300

with colony counter

ScanStation 300 is a device centralizing incubation, detection and counting of Petri dishes. Colonies are detected & counted as soon as they appear. Follow the growth curve of the colonies. ScanStation 300 can accomodate up to 300 Petri dishes. Capacity: up to 300 Petri dishes Counting on pour plate, surface, Spiral, filtration membranes Petri dish sizes: Ø 55 to 65 mm, Ø 90 mm Telecentric lens Reading time in between each dish: 1 hour A revolutionary concept Colony counting is done automatically during incubation. You get a video of the bacterial growth in real time. 1 incubator An incubator of 300 Petri dishes ScanStation 300 is composed of a rotating storage carousel with a 300 Petri dishes capacity. The 300 Petri dishes are processed simultaneously in this thermoregulated incubator with Peltier module ± 1°C. 1 robotic arm A robotic arm transfers the Petri dishes for a time-lapse photography The robotic arm transfers the Petri dishes from the carousel to the camera to perform a time-lapse photography. ScanStation is equipped with a pressure-sensitive gripper which adapts itself to all Petri dishes. 1 automatic colony counter The automatic colony counter detects and counts colonies as soon as they appear The 5 megapixel ultra-HD camera detects colonies as soon as they appear before clustering or covering can occur, while dissociating the artefacts. So that you get more accurate and faster results. You can see the video of bacterial growth during and after incubation. Data integrity ScanStation saves images and videos of bacterial growth from the start till the end of the incubation. You can recover the data beyond the incubation date.
