The Master Science Digital Colony Counter makes manual counting of bacterial colonies faster and more accurate. Each colony is marked with the supplied pen on a backlit counting plate, and a sensor with an audible signal registers every touch on the LED display.
A 3X magnifier on a flexible arm can be positioned exactly over the dish, which suits Petri dishes from 50 to 150 mm. Two versions count up to 999 or up to 9999 colonies.
