Automatic Colony Counters
The purpose of colony counting is ultimately to estimate the number of cells present based on their given ability to continue to grow and expand under certain conditions like temperature and the state of the nutrient medium

Features
- Auto lite is the latest affordable, automated colony counting device.
- The Auto lite is available in one configuration and features simple to use software that greatly improves efficiency, reliability, and productivity.
- Auto lite software uses a powerful algorithm for colony counting on pour and spiral plates.
- A colony separator automatically splits touching colonies to further improve the accuracy of the counting process.
- Results and plate images are saved to a PC enabling traceability, consistency, and report generation in Excel.
- Displays the image on your computer screen with counted colonies clearly marked – the zoom function allows the user to closely view plates, confirming accurate counting.
- An integral CCD colour camera can be adjusted to increase the sensitivity of detection, enabling colonies as small as 0,1 mm to be imaged and counted.
- Switchable LED lighting from upper to lower, both light and dark media can be counted in best conditions.
- A detachable screen can be used to eliminate strong ambient light if required.
- Auto lite can be used with any conforming laptop or desktop PC and connects simply by using a USB port.
