BactoScan™ FC Semiautomatic - quality scaled to fit

BactoScan Semiautomatic, makes BactoScan testing available in a form that is ideal for milk-testing laboratories with lower sample throughput. Typically, these laboratories need BactoScan reliability, but not the full complement of automation facilities delivered with the FC model.

The semiautomatic option is exactly the same instrument as BactoScan FC, except that the automatic sampling conveyor and stirrer have been removed.

Still in the picture are features such as the fully-automatic sample preparation that helps to avoid human error, the patented method of counting individual bacteria rather than colony forming units, short analysis time of less than 9 minutes and Foss Integrator software.

BactoScan semiautomatic:

• Scaled down to fit labs with limited sample throughput by removing the sample conveyor and some software automation features
• Delivers the same quality results as BactoScan FC
• Employs the proven and documented BactoScan analysis method
• National approvals for BactoScan FC also apply
• Can be upgraded to a fully automatic model if needed
