Colony Counters

Our **Colony Counter** is a high-precision microbiological instrument engineered for the rapid and accurate counting of bacterial and mold colonies on agar plates. Featuring advanced microprocessor-based technology, this device ensures reliability in clinical pathology, water testing, and food safety labs. The instrument is equipped with a sensitive electronic pressure pad and a high-quality magnifying glass that provides a clear view of the Petri dish, reducing eye strain for the technician. Every count is acknowledged by an audible beep and shown on a high-contrast digital display, ensuring no colony is missed or double-counted. As a global manufacturer, we provide models with uniform glare-free illumination and wolfram-point pens, making it the perfect choice for high-volume laboratories requiring standardized results for CFU (Colony Forming Units) calculations.

Microbiological Significance

The significance of a colony counter lies in its ability to eliminate the high margin of error associated with manual counting. Accurate CFU counting is fundamental for determining the safety of drinking water, the potency of antibiotics, and the shelf-life of food products. It provides a standardized method that ensures laboratory audits and quality compliance are met with precise data points.

Primary Uses

Primarily used for counting bacterial colonies in Petri dishes up to 150mm. It is used in vaccine research to monitor growth rates, in environmental science to measure microbial loads in air samples, and in fermentation industries to check yeast health. It is also utilized for total viable counts in chemical and cosmetic testing.

Broad Applications

Extensively applied in Municipal Water Labs for testing E. coli levels and in Pharmaceutical industries for environmental monitoring of cleanrooms. It finds application in the Dairy industry for testing milk purity and in Agriculture for soil microbiology studies. Hospitals use it for checking contamination in surgical environments.
