aerobic colony counts

It is not easy to calibrate, but once calibrated it is easy to use. It is an expensive piece of equipment and requires care.

Manufacturer's Response

“For users who have to calibrate on a regular basis DWS provides a technical note (also available from our distributors worldwide) to assist in this process. We have sold in excess of 1000 WASP units and know of some models that are over 20 years old and still in good working order. The price of this equipment has reduced significantly in recent years and the initial cost should be considered in line with the cost savings in not having to prepare serial dilutions.”

Whitley WASP Touch

WASP Touch is a new spiral plater, designed for the needs of modern microbiology laboratories. This is a fundamentally different plater with no need for a separate vacuum source. The system is extremely simple to use and provides real cost savings and process improvements. Now it really is time to eliminate serial dilutions.

  • Touchscreen operation
  • New automatic sanitising system automatically maintains correct liquid levels in sanitising solutions – patent pending
  • Illuminated, covered working area
  • Robust and reliable
  • Easy serviceability

WASP Touch provides Automated Intelligent Monitoring Software (AIMS) to guide you through set-up and daily check routines - ensures consistent trouble-free plating.

  • Sample may be aspirated from beakers, bottles and tubes – providing maximum flexibility in use
  • Automatically logs date, time, deposition, user name, number of plates produced – a powerful diagnostic tool
  • Flowsense - detects the movement of liquid through the WASP Touch
  • Precise quantities of sanitising fluids are dispensed automatically to maintain optimum levels. This ensures effective and efficient sanitisation takes place
  • Sanitising system reservoirs are available in two sizes and can contain sufficient fluid for hundreds of wash cycles – perfect for busy laboratories
  • Fully integrated vacuum waste system – occupies the smallest amount of bench width
  • Optional fully comprehensive maintenance and breakdown contracts are available to prolong the life of your investment. (Note: different arrangements apply in different countries)
