Designed for reliable and efficient counting of bacterial colonies and bacteriophage plaques growing on nutrient agar or nutrient disks/filter disks in Petri dishes.

• For Petri dishes with Ø 90 mm (optional Ø 60 mm or Ø 150 mm)
• Adjustable light intensity, sensitivity of counting plate, volume of buzzer
• Average count calculation, data transfer via USB to the PC

Modern LED lighting technology absolutely glare-free and eye gentle

• Three types of illumination: from below, from the side or from the top (optional)
• A so far unknown transparency and differentiation (on agar or nutrient disk)
• Natural colour reproduction and brilliant lighting
• No heating of the samples

Easy counting by marking the colonies with an ordinary felt-tip marker pen on the Petri dish

• Acoustical counting observation (buzzer with adjustable volume)
• 4-digit LED-display (0-9999)
• Clearly arranged foil keypad for all controls

Included in scope of delivery:
Adapter (transparent) for illumination from below and adapter (black/white) for illumination from the side, contrast disk (black), USB cable, felt-tip marker pen with pen holder.

For counting more than 50 Petri dishes per day, the automatic colony counter schuett colonyQuant is recommended (sample chamber, PC/notebook, software licence). Automatic counting and documentation of Petri dishes or nutrient disks, populated with smallest colonies of <0.05 mm diameter, mixed cultures are possible. Can be optionally connected to an existing LIM system. Petrifilm assessment, test assessment of customer-specific plates can be carried out before you decide to purchase.
