Description
Semi-automatic device for counting the number of colonies of microorganisms on Petri dishes.
For fast and efficient counting, the colony counter uses an automatic contact rod. When touching a colony of microorganisms with a contact rod, an electronic counter is automatically triggered. In addition, an audible signal is used to indicate the moment the colony counter is triggered, which is turned off if necessary.

The choice of backlight color and brightness of the light field makes the work with the colony counter easy and comfortable.

Any regular felt-tip pen can be used with the ColonyStar colony counter.
Counting plate, Ø 145 mm
