Colony Counter ( automated )

Colony Counter (Automated)

Colony Counter (automated) is image analysis software used to automatically count colonies of bacteria, yeast, or other microorganisms grown on agar plates. It can significantly reduce time spent manually counting colonies.

What is Colony Counter ( automated )?

Colony Counter (automated) is an image processing software designed specifically for fast, accurate, and automatic counting of microbial colonies grown on agar plates. It employs advanced image recognition algorithms to detect and enumerate circular microbial colonies based on size, shape, color, and other parameters.

This software greatly reduces the time and effort required for the tedious task of manual colony counting using mechanical counters or manual tallying. Automated colony counters can count hundreds of agar plates with thousands of colonies in a few hours, freeing up significant researcher time.

Benefits of Colony Counter (automated) include consistency in colony recognition and counting accuracy over time. It eliminates subjective errors and fatigue effects associated with manual counting. The software also provides data on colony size distribution and other growth parameters. Flexible settings allow optimization based on microorganism strain, media opacity, plate orientation, and research needs.

Colony Counter (automated) integrates with incubators, automation systems, and counters for full lab workflow automation from plate imaging to data analysis. Results can be exported to Excel, PDF reports, or LIMS. It represents an essential tool for improving efficiency and standardization in microbial assays across food testing, water quality analysis, industrial microbiology, clinical studies, and pharmaceutical research.
