Synbiosis has announced the Protocol 2 automated colony counting and zone measurement system for quick and easy analysis of standard and large plates.
The company will debut the system at Arablab 2011 at the Dubai International Convention Centre on 7-10 March.
On its stand, Synbiosis experts will demonstrate how the Protocol 2, with its simple touch-screen, controls the system's high-resolution camera and three-colour LED lighting.
Visitors will see how the combination of the Protocol 2 system's lighting method and its total viable count (TVC) software enable fast and accurate counting of colonies as small as a pin-prick.
By integrating a processor, there is no need to purchase a separate computer with the Protocol 2.
By offering five separate Protocol 2 software modules, which can all be integrated into a CFR Part 11 environment, scientists only have to buy those their laboratory wants to use.
The Protocol 2 software modules for colony counting, spiral plate counts, AMES test counts, and inhibition measurements will be available on the stand.
Scientists can try out features such as the icon-driven TVC software colour analysis wizard, grid recognition and SQL database for downloading results to see how user-friendly the software is for their applications.
