Microbial Analysis Equipment Products & Reviews

The MALDI Biotyper® employs MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry for microbial identification, facilitating unbiased identification of microorganisms within a few minutes down to the species level, starting from culture. It boasts various features, such as ease of use, rapidity, robustness, high throughput, cost-effectiveness, and efficiency, making it a must-have for microbiology laboratories.

Streamlining your MALDI-TOF MS microbiology workflows. The MBT Biotarget 96 is a ready-to-use disposable MALDI-TOF MS target plate for the industry-leading Bruker MALDI Biotyper ® . It streamlines your routine microbiology workflows. The MBT Biotarget 96 enables full traceability with unique barcodes, and it eliminates pre- and post-processing of the target plate making your workflows more productive.

A breakthrough in monoclonal​ gammopathy assessment

Rapid, manual counting of colonies

ProtoCOL 3/ProtoCOL 3 HD is the next generation instrument for colony counting, zone measurements (inhibition and antibiotic susceptibility testing), membranes, PETRIFILM™ plates, CompactDry™ plates and a range of other applications including: spiral plates, OPKA (opsonophagocytic killing assay), SBA (serum bactericidal assay), Multi-sector, Multi-well, SRD (single radial immunodiffusion) and Ames. 

EZ-Fluo is a non-destructive method that enables you to continue to grow the microorganisms after they have been stained in order to identify them using any standard ID technology.

Affordable colony counting

ProcScan – large plate imaging. ProcScan is used when working with large size plates either for colony counting or for the measurement of inhibition zones on plates which are too large to fit inside the ProtoCOL 3.The ProcScan can be connected to a ProtoCOL 3 or a stand alone computer that is running the ProtoCOL 3 software.When larger plates are being utilised, simply use the ProcScan scanner which can work with plates of up…

Protos 3 – automated colony counting and chromogenic identification system. Protos 3 is a revolutionary automated colony counter and chromogenic identification system. Using its sensitive CCD camera and unique lighting coupled with powerful analysis software, Protos 3 counts colonies in seconds and automatically identifies microbial species by their colour on chromogenic plates. This provides accurate, objective and fully tra…

ChromaZona is an IVD certified instrument for automated microbial ID and antibiotic susceptibility testing designed for speeding up testing in the clinical laboratory. Working to EUCAST standards, the system's sensitive CCD camera, unique three channel lighting and powerful Chromogenic ID software, microbial species on chromogenic plates can be identified in seconds. Then by accurately analysing zones around antibiotic disc…
