Scan 4000 is an ultra HD inhibition zone reader. It has been designed for the pharmaceutical industries, medical research and animal health. It reads 120 mm square dishes 120 mm and round dishes up to 150 mm. Scan 4000 also counts colonies on Petri dishes.
Inhibition zone measurement accuracy: ± 0.2 mm
Fast: up to 16 inhibition zones in 2 to 4 seconds
Protocols: wells, peni-cylinders, paper disks
Interpretation systems: EUCAST, CA-SFM, CLSI and customizable
Scan 4000 reads up to 16 antibiotics on a Petri dish in just 2-4 seconds.
The result is categorized SIR:
Green: susceptible
Yellow: intermediate
Red: resistant
Pills on Mueller Hinton before/after reading
Detection on all Petri dishes
Scan 4000 automatically detects the peni-cylinders, present or removed, made of steel or plastic. It also reads agar wells or paper disks (any brand). Add/remove disks manually.The inhibition zones can also be resized. Scan 4000 allows reading on blood, chocolate or Mueller Hinton agar. In its automatic colony counter mode, Scan 4000 counts colonies on round or square Petri dishes.
The Scan software complies with FDA recommendations, particularly on audit trail and security of results.
The user account management, integrated in the software, allows the creation of up to 5 levels of rights. The Supervisor-Administrator has all the roles while the other roles are subject to certain rights. Password management secures user accounts.
Scan 4000 connects to the LIMS in bi-directionality and can be connected to the diluter and plater via dataLink traceability system.

Scan 4000 offers multiple export possibilities to save manual input time. It also increases the security and quality of your analyses.
Usually, Petri dishes are thrown away after counting and no further verification is possible in the event of a claim. With Scan 4000, all reports are archived.
Export your results to your PC or archive them in CSV, ExcelTM, OpenOfficeTM, PDF, SCA, BIO format. You can also export images from the camera in JPEG, PNG and BMP format.

Applications
Scan 4000 makes it possible to check the effectiveness of an antibiotic on a microorganism by measuring the zone of inhibition. In addition, it adapts to perform titration and/or antibiotic dosage in the pharmaceutical industry. In the field of animal health, the Scan evaluates antimicrobial resistance with its SIR interpretation.
