Solve the problem with highest accuracy.

• Manual counting reduces time efficiency.

  Manual counting takes too much time and delays other works.
  Counting operation cause stiff neck and shoulders.

  

  

• There is large variation due to visual counting.

  Accurate measurement is hard such like when in measuring coliform bacteria colonies larger than 0.5mm.
  Due to physical condition of the day, it may be possible to miss small colonies.

  

  

• large colonies decrease the measurement accuracy.

  There might be possibly existing beneath the large colonies on the surface of pour plating medium, however it is hard to count such small colonies.

  

  

• Color separation is not possible with existing measurement devices.

  High-resolution digital color cameras are used in PSF series. A condition for color separation measurement can be easily set by simply clicking on the target colonies on the image.

  

  

• The shape of the colonies varies, but is it possible to measure automatically?

  Colonies are separated by color or brightness, so it is not affected by its shape.

  

  

• Is it possible to separate colonies from residues in medium?

  If there is a difference in size or in color between residues and colonies, measurement is possible.

  

  

• The size of colonies is mixed, but is it possible to count all of them?

  If you set a wide colony size range, you can measure all of them.

  

  

• The colonies are unclear and small. Is it possible to measure them?

  As an practice, anything brighter than the medium can be counted as a colony.

  

  

• The colonies are large and connected. Is it possible to measure them?

  It is possible to separate them by overlap differentiation function.
