Accelerating bacterial quantification: Exploring rapid and accurate automated cell counting with the QUANTOM Tx

Counting bacterial cell samples using classical methods can be time-consuming, labor-intensive, and may require specialized equipment and expertise. The process can be long and complex, with limitations in terms of sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy, ultimately impacting the reliability of results.

Bacteria are an incredibly diverse group of organisms that come in multiple shapes, sizes, and arrangements making colony counting a difficult process. However, the QUANTOM Tx^™ Microbial Cell Counter offers solutions to these challenges by providing rapid and accurate bacterial quantification.

With no culturing needed, the QUANTOM Tx is able to detect bacterial cells in minutes, not days. The novel bacteria-cell detection software is able to detect individual cells despite genome size, morphology, cell size, or motility, and even in the tightest of clusters.

Time-saving solutions with reliable and accurate counts make the QUANTOM Tx Microbial Cell Counter a valid option for bacteria research.
