Contrasting colony lighting: Dark Field 2
Dark Field 2 is an indirect lighting system with adjustable intensity. Light reflectors diffuse the light at all points without any reflections or shadows. It makes all colonies stand out on the surface, in the mass and around the edge of the dish. Flashes of light are eliminated and the operator’s eyes are protected.
Touch surface with adjustable sensitivity
Counting with Scan 50 is intuitive: count the colonies on your dish, the touch surface is doubled by a sound or light signal.
Ergonomics redesigned
To keep the workstation clean, the glass and the smooth handrest are removable. Easy to disinfect, they ensure perfect hygiene of the workstation.
Save time by exporting the data recorded during the count via USB, LIMS, spreadsheet or text format. You will avoid errors rewriting the results. You can also connect a barcode reader for data transmission.
Warranty
Scan 50 colony counters have 3-YEAR warranty (parts and labour) just by sending the warranty card back.
Applications
Scan 50 colony counter is used in the food, environmental, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, veterinary and public institutes research.

INTERSCIENCE has designed a long-lasting white LED lighting system. Their design in a circle allows optimized contrast and highlights each colony for a accurate and fast counting. The brightness is adjustable.
The light is diffused in the colony, the colony is highlighted on a perfectly black background.
The contrast is optimal with this indirect white lighting, the colonies are easy to count. The operator gains in working comfort and precision.
Counting with Scan 100 is intuitive: count the colonies on your dish, the touch pulse is doubled by a beeping sound. Sensitivity is adjustable via the “sensitivity” wheel.
`
The inclined reading plane and hand rest ensure comfort during the count. An integrated storage space is provided for the counting grids. Scan 100 is compatible with all types of pens or markers.
Save time by exporting via USB, LIMS, ExcelTM the data recorded during the count. This will prevent errors in rewriting results.
Scan automatic colony counters have 3-YEAR warranty (parts and labour) just by sending the warranty card back.

Export your results to your PC or archive them in CSV, ExcelTM, OpenOfficeTM, PDF, SCA, BIO format. You can also export images from the camera in JPEG, PNG and BMP format.
All data, images, photos and results are exportable in printable reports, sca, pdf, jpg, xls, csv.
Printed report example
Thanks to the Dark Field technology and its low lighting, colonies are easy to count. The operator does not tire his eyes.
dataLink is a complete traceability system for the microbiological analysis of a sample, from its plating with easySpiral Pro or easySpiral Dilute platers to colony counting. After incubation, the reading of the datamatrix code makes it possible to collect the information of the sample and its plating and to automatically launch on the colony counter the associated parameters.

Thanks to the Dark Field technology and its low lighting, colonies are easy to count. The operator does not tire his eyes.
dataLink is a complete traceability system for the microbiological analysis of a sample, from its plating with easySpiral Pro or easySpiral Dilute platers to colony counting. After incubation, the reading of the datamatrix code makes it possible to collect the information of the sample and its plating and to automatically launch on the colony counter the associated parameters.
Scan 1200 automatic colony counters have 3-YEAR warranty (parts and labour) just by sending the warranty card back.
The Scan 1200 colony counter is used in the food, environmental, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, veterinary and public institutes research.

Petri dishes are difficult to lighten as they are transparent and reflective. Heterogeneous lighting creates artefacts on the edge of the agar and on the sides of the Petri dish. These artefacts may be counted as colonies and can ruin an accurate counting.
We have designed a white diffusing dome for 360° lighting without reflections or shadows. The lighting is spread evenly everywhere and allows you to count the colonies on the entire surface.
Equipped with a German 5 megapixels camera and a Japanese lens, the Scan 4000 offers the best image quality of the INTERSCIENCE range. See details you would not see with your bare eye!
Place the Petri dish where you want, the Scan 4000 automatically detects it and zooms on it. You can count on 100% of the surface of the Petri dish and avoid missing a colony nestled on the meniscus agar.
