Bioscreen C main application is a kinetical growth monitoring
of 200 microbiological samples at time. Bioscreen C generates growth
curves and performs microbiological calculations automatically.
Bioscreen C is an open system for almost any broth
culture of bacteria, yeast, fungi, cell or phage.
It is a well-known biological phenomena that all microorganisms
produce a turbidity when growing in a growth medium. Bioscreen C
measures a sample turbidity kinetically and displays turbidity versus time graph
(growth curves) on screen.
Bioscreen C is a useful equipment for those labs
where a microorganism growth is wanted to monitor kinetically. Growth data is
recoreded kinetically to a computer hard disk. Among other uses it is a useful
tool to measure an effect of environmental parameter or pH on microorganisms. Bioscreen C
can be used both for aerobic and for anaerobic strains.
One can dispense in empty sterile wells of Bioscreen C
any sample (typically a cell or microorganism culture and a growth medium) and
200 growth curves will be produced automatically. Each well gives a growth
curve (turbidity versus time graph).
The range of Bioscreen C tests is virtually endless -
miniaturized bioassays, measurement of effect of chemicals, pH, temperature and
other parameters on micro-organisms, antibiotic susceptibility tests,
QC of food
(total count) and others.
