Colony Counter (Pre-Owned)

Biological procedures often rely on an accurate count of bacterial colonies and cells. Counting colonies is traditionally performed manually using a pencil and a click-counter. This is generally a straightforward task but can become very laborious and time consuming when many plates have to be enumerated. Colony counters used to estimate a liquid culture’s density of microorganisms by counting individual colonies on an agar plate, slide, mini gel, or Petri dish for maximized working efficiency in the lab. More accurate than manual calculations, the colony counters also have the software to export images and information for further analysis. The equipment rapidly accelerates medical and biology research procedures that demand microorganism growth rates.
