Ref. 434 300

Scan 3000 Ai is a cutting-edge tool designed to automate and standardize colony counting in microbiological analyses. Thanks to artificial intelligence, it offers exceptional performance and is constantly evolving to incorporate the latest technological advances. It is compatible with all sizes of Petri dishes up to 90 mm and all types of culture media.

  • Minimum size of detected colony: 0.03 mm
  • Counting on round Petri dishes with a diameter of 55 to 90 mm
  • Counting on pour, surface, Spiral and circle plating
  • Counting on chromogenic agars, Petrifilm™, MC-media Pads™, Compact Dry™, Easy Plate™, filtration membranes
  • Reading of inhibition zones
  • AI-powered colony counting

Excellent performances of pre-trained models

The AI of the Scan Ai automatic counter has been trained on more than 1 million annotated images from different sectors of activity.


Pre-trained Scan Ai models

We have thus integrated counting models for common culture media:
  • Total count (PCA/TSA)
  • Coliforms
  • Enterobacteriaceae (VRBL/VRBG)
  • Escherichia Coli (TBX)
  • Lactobacilli (MRS)
  • Mossel
  • SDA
  • Symphony
  • Yeasts/molds
  • GVPC
  • Compass Bacillus Cereus
  • Rhapsody
  • PDA
  • Blood Agar
  • MILLIFLEX OASIS™
    (TSA, SDA, R2A)
  • Staphylococci
    (Baird-Parker, Baird-Parker RPF)

Rapid reading of antibiograms

For precise clinical results and decision-making for the diagnosis and treatment of patients, the automated reading of antibiograms remains the most relevant solution.
  • Up to 7 antibiotics in 1-3 seconds
  • Measurement accuracy: ± 0.2 mm
  • Integrated databases: CA-SFM, Eucast, CLSI

Data integrity

Scan Ai receives and sends information from LIMS and/or dataLink and digitizes the counting. All the data from the analysis are traceable and auditable. The results are validated by a double electronic signature. Thanks to account management, you have multi-level access for the validation of results. This solution thus ensures the reliability and security of data in accordance with FDA guidelines, 21 CFR Part 11 and GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) Annex 11.


Account management 21 CFR Scan software

Traceability and printing of results

Scan 3000 Ai connects to the LIMS in bi-directionality and can be connected to the diluter and plater via dataLink, a traceability system. It offers multiple export possibilities to save time on manual entry and thus increase the security and quality of your analyses.

Export your results to your PC or archive them in CSV, Excel™, OpenOffice™, PDF, SCA, BIO format. You can also export images from the camera in JPEG, PNG and BMP format.

All your data on the Petri dish with dataLink

With dataLink, the sample is monitored from the plating to the automatic colony counting.

Set the parameters for the label to be adhered to the side of the plate. The colony counting is then optimized.

White LED Dome lighting,
reflection and shadow free

Petri dishes are difficult to light, because they are transparent and reflective. Heterogeneous lighting often creates artifacts on the meniscus of the agar and on the edge of the plate. These artifacts are counted as colonies or prevent perfect counting.

We have designed a white diffusing dome that provides 360° lighting for the plate, without any reflection or shadow. The light is diffused from all points, and provides lighting without artifacts for counting even on the edge of the plate.
