The small, automated instrument offers a fast alternative to manual assay or semi-automated methods requiring reagent handling. It delivers accurate results for bacteria count and somatic cell within nine minutes or two and half minutes for somatic cell count alone using a flow cytometry technology.

The handy format makes it ideal for use at the dairy, on large farms or in smaller milk-testing laboratories!

Simplicity saves money
As simple to use as other FOSS instruments for the dairy industry such as the MilkoScan FT1 and MilkoScan Mars, the BacSomatic small footprint and intuitive touch screen operation makes it easy for anyone to test hygiene quality in milk in any location.

The rapid results promote smarter money-saving decisions, for instance, on the suitability of milk deliveries for cheese or butter production and whether to segregate or reject a tanker load to avoid nasty, quality-impacting surprises downstream in the process

Automated method for Highly consistent and accurate results
Built on a long FOSS tradition of automating analytical tests, BacSomatic™ provides ready-to-use reagents in an enclosed bag system which effectively avoids skin contact. The automated procedure ensures exact reagent dosage every time reducing the risk of human error that can occur with other methods.

IDEXX Colilert-18/Quanti-Tray Test Becomes the New ISO Standard 9308-2:2012

Agricultural Sciences / Nutrition & Food Sciences ...

IDEXX announces that its Colilert®-18/Quanti-Tray® test becomes the new International Organization for Standardization (ISO) worldwide standard for detecting total coliforms and E. coli in water. The Organization has withdrawn ISO 9308-2:1990, which follows the multiple tube (most probable number) method, and replaced it with ISO 9308-2:2012 using the Colilert-18/Quanti-Tray method.
