Synbiosis ProtoCOL 3
Versatile Precision for Automated Microbial Analysis
The Synbiosis ProtoCOL 3 is a high-performance automated colony counting and zone measurement system designed to deliver fast, accurate, and traceable microbiological results. Combining advanced imaging technology with intelligent software, ProtoCOL 3 streamlines colony counting and inhibition zone measurement for clinical, pharmaceutical, environmental, and food microbiology laboratories.
Description
Imaging
Equipped with a high-resolution camera and three-colour LED illumination, the ProtoCOL 3 captures sharp, high-contrast images for accurate detection of colonies and inhibition zones across all agar types. The system’s refined optics and advanced analysis algorithms ensure reproducible results, even for small or faint colonies, making it ideal for a wide range of microbiological assays.
Capability
The ProtoCOL 3 automatically counts colonies or measures zones at the touch of a button, processing plates up to 150 mm in diameter with exceptional speed and reliability. Its modular design supports multiple software applications — including colony counting, zone measurement, spiral plate analysis, eAST, and Ames tests — offering a flexible, all-in-one platform for automated plate reading.
