What Is the Colony Counter Digital Used For?
A colony count estimates how many viable bacteria or fungi were in a water, food or environmental sample: a measured amount is spread or poured onto agar, incubated, and every visible colony is counted, then the count is scaled back by the dilution used. The operator places the 110 mm dish on the counter, views the colonies through the ×1.7 magnifier lens and marks each colony on the dish with the marking pen as it is counted, so that none is missed or counted twice. The total appears on the 4 digit LED display, and counts can be held in the 125 memory.
