Synbiosis™ ProtoCOL 3

Description

• High throughput: ProtoCOL 3 is equipped to be used when large numbers of plates need to be counted or measured rapidly and accurately
• All counting and measuring functions are automatic with results instantly sent to the internal reporting system
• color imaging: The unique LED lighting in the system gives full color images
• The color classification feature of the ProtoCOL 3 software allows for an infinite range of color options on the same plate
• A choice of sample holders is included for both light and dark backgrounds, depending on sample type
• Wide range of applications: The system can be configured for a wide range of plate types, including pour plates, spiral plates, multi-well, SBA, OPKA, Ames, inhibition zones, AST, and SRD
• Plates up to 150 mm can be used on the standard unit
• An optional external scanning device can be added should larger plates need to be processed
• Extensive report generation: One of the major benefits of an automated system is that reports can be generated within the device
• ProtoCOL 3 produces reports that can easily be exported to Excel at the touch of a button
• Traceability: All the data generated has a full audit trail
• All report generation is traceable and has an audit ‘lock’
• Data is CFR compliant and the system can be connected to a LIMS if required
• Sensitivity: ProtoCOL 3 uses a highly sensitive CCD camera with a high resolution
• Colonies as small as 43 microns (0.043 mm) can be easily counted and zones can be accurately measured to 0.5 mm with a theoretical detection limit of 0.1 mm.
