Contrasting colony lighting : Dark  Field 2

Dark Field 2 is an indirect lighting system with adjustable intensity. Light reflectors diffuse the light at all points without any reflections or shadows. It makes all colonies stand out on the surface, in the mass and around the edge of the dish. Flashes of light are eliminated and the operator’s eyes are protected.
