Scan 300 Automatic Colony Counter 

“Budget-friendly”

Ref. 436 300

Scan 300 is an 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 connects to a PC via an USB connection and automatically export results to Excel .

1. HIGH RESOLUTION AND PERFORMANCE 
 Minimum colony size: 0.1 mm 
 1000 colonies CFU detected in 1 second 
 Live image (zoom x28) 
 Counts 30 dishes in 5 minutes (in real conditions with presettings)

2. COUNTS ON:

3. SOFTWARE EFFICIENCY 
 All functions in 1 window 
 Automatic optimization of the contrast, luminosity and sensitivity 
 Automatic corrections of the agar defects, separation of confluent colonies, elimination of counting grids 
 Cross on each counted colony 
 Polygonal exclusion areas 
 Automatic adjus ent of the counting area 
 Automatic settings for more than 20 pres-set media (PCA/TSA, MRS, VRBL, TBX, TSC, Baird Parker, GVPC, L.Mono, YM and more…)

4. FULL TRACEABILITY 
 Harmonization of the results within a team 
 Automatic archiving and printing of data: pictures, comments & results 
 External traceability (Session saved, Excel , PDF, JPEG, BMP, Scan printed report) 
 Internal traceability (Barcode, file archive, LIMS connection) 
 Securization of the sessions (Compliance with 21 CFR part 11: system securization, operational controls and documentation management)

5. EXCELLENT REPRODUCIBILITY AND REPEATABILITY 
 GLP (Good laboratory Practice) 
 21 CFR Part 11
