HiCFU Counter™ C
■ Colony Counting – Automatic, Easy, Accurate
■ State-of-the-art technology
■ Trainable to read any Colony
■ Record large number of colonies
■ Avoid manual error
The quality of microbiological media is assessed by the performance against the intended use. Microbiology has wide
application in various fields like pharmaceutical, cosmetics, clinical, food, dairy, water, agriculture and much more. The
presence of microorganisms is detected qualitatively and quantitatively. The major acceptance criteria for any agarified
media is based on the presence of “Colony Forming Unit or CFU” exhibited by different microorganism on specified
media. The acceptance criteria is well defined by various pharmacopoeia, ISO standards and reference books.

Manual counting of enormous Petri plates is laborious, time consuming and strenuous process which can lead to manual counting error.
Automatic counting is a guarantee of regularity and standardization of analyses, which is the key to ensure accurate and reliable results.
Comparative study done for colony counting using manual technique & automated system. Study was conducted using Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli, Lactobacillus casei & Listeria monocytogenes
