New Protos 3 Colony Counter

New Protos 3 colony counter and rapid ID system saves time and provides accurate, traceable results in microbiology

Don Whitley Scientific Limited introduces a vibrant new automated colony counting and chromogenic identification system, Protos 3. This system allows accurate and reproducible identification of colonies cultured on chromogenic plates.

What makes the new Protos 3 outperform other commercial colony counters is the system’s ability to count colonies in seconds and identify microbial species by their colour on chromogenic plates. This is a great time saver, providing accurate, objective and fully traceable GLP compliant results.

The stylish, yet practical Protos 3, which comes in bright red, attaches easily to a computer and requires minimal training to set up. Users simply input their plate identification and click. The Protos 3, featuring a highly sensitive CCD camera combined with unique three colour LED lighting, rapidly images an infinite number of colony colours on one plate and detects colonies as small as 0.043mm.

The Protos 3’s powerful software then generates true to life counts and plate images, which can be transferred and stored in Excel. This GLP compliant process, with its full audit trail eliminates keying and image transfer errors providing accurate, objective data, which can be reviewed anywhere and anytime.

“Microbiologists have always wanted a colony counter that combines throughput and automatic colony ID,” commented Steve Robertson, Sales Director. “The new Protos 3 offers a high performance platform that generates fully traceable data and we know it will be a huge time saving device for microbiologists in food and pharmaceutical laboratories. For anyone using a spiral plater for carrying out multiple bacterial enumerations, this is a perfect solution.”
