IUL DOT Colony Counter

The IUL DOT Colony Counter allows agar plates to be inserted inside the colony counter where they are properly lit and magnified. Operators can tick detected colonies with a specifically devised marker while a digital display increases the total counts. Pointers that can directly contact colonies are also available.

The system’s highlights include:

• High quality magnification—IUL’s DOT Colony Counter has a large, 120 mm diameter lens with a DINx2 magnification power.

• Pointer technology—Colonies are counted by directly touching these with a pointer or by marking them on the Petri dish with a felt tip pen.

• Adapted for any plate—Multiple adapters are available–60 mm, 70 mm, 80 mm, 90 mm,100 mm, 120 mm, and 150 mm.

• Send colony counts to PC applications through USB—Colony counts can be sent to PC applications such as a spreadsheet. Results are sent as standard PC keyboard keystrokes.

• Lighting scalable intensities—Features include a bottom light with 4 selectable intensities that has on/off switching powered from the instrument. The upper light may also have on/off switching powered from the instrument, depending on the glass magnifier ordered.
