Plater and dilution features

Ref. 414 000

easySpiral Dilute is an automatic diluter and plater of Petri dishes. It allows 1/10th serial dilutions and plating up to 6 log. dilution on 1 single Petri dish. For a sample of 30 to 1 x 1012 bacteria, no more manual dilutions and plating is automatic.

  • Automatic cycle of 5 successive dilutions at 1/10th
  • Plating modes: exponential, constant, circle, pour plate
  • Counting range: from 30 to 1x1012 CFU/mL
  • Plating cycle time: 134 seconds

Presentation

A revolution for your serial dilutions!

You no longer need to prepare 9 mL tubes, easySpiral Dilute automatizes serial dilutions to 10-5 or more. PATENTED

Place the sample

Place your sample in a beaker and choose your dilution factor: from 10-1 to 10-5

Dilute automatically

easySpiral Dilute automatically dilutes the sample up to 5 times.

Plate automatically

easySpiral Dilute plates a sample on 1 Petri dish from 30 to 1x1012 CFU/mL

The Spiral plating technique

With the Spiral plating technique, increase your analysis capabilities: without intermediate dilutions, perform standardized automatic plating with a counting range from 100 to 1 x 107 CFU/mL on 1 single Petri dish !

Manual plating method requires repetitive actions: at least 4 dilutions and 4 successive platings are necessary to obtain one good and readable Petri dish.

With Automatic Spiral method, make your analyses on 1 single Petri dish!

50% time-saving
and consumables savings

easySpiral Dilute saves you 50% in consumables and 50% in time. 134 seconds for plating (1 disinfection + 5 dilutions + 1 plating of a dilution).

Example on 50 samples with a 10-7 dilution and a 10-5, 10-6 and 10-7 plating

One touch plating

Plate easily and quickly your 55, 90 and 150 mm Petri dishes.
Choose from 4 plating modes: exponential, constant, circle and pour.

Exponential mode

The exponential mode is a plating in surface with a decreasing surface concentration. Plate 50 µL, 100 µL, 200 µL or program a customizable volume.

Obtain a countable Petri dish from 100 to 1 x 1012 CFU/mL

Constant mode

The constant mode is a homogenous surface deposition plating. Plate 50 µL, 100 µL, 200 µL or program a customizable volume.

Colony counting is then easy because there are no colonies on the edges of the Petri dish.

Circle mode

The circle mode is plating 3 or 6 dilutions in surface on 1 Petri dish. The volumes are 10 µL for the inner circle, 16 µL for the middle circle and 25 µL for the outer circle.

Great savings on Petri dishes!

Pour mode

The pour mode is a homogeneous deposition in pour plate mode.
easySpiral Dilute deposits one sample drop at the bottom of an empty Petri dish. Then the user adds the molten agar on top and homogenizes it with the sample.
You can plate 50 µL, 100 µL, 200 µL or program your personalized volume.

Colony counting is easier in case of invasive colonies. Pharmacopea compliant.

High accuracy glass syringe

Typical accuracy of glass syringe is 0.5 %.
Higher accuracy than an ordinary pipette and no more pipet calibration.

Automatic disinfection

Overflow technology cleaning system and stylus disinfection. A light is activated in case of empty disinfecting liquid.
PATENTED

High speed automation

The fast rotating arm adapts itself to all types of agar without risks of ploughing. It makes it possible to obtain a plating in 134 seconds (disinfection + 5 dilutions + 1 plating of a dilution).
PATENTED

Traceability ensured
with dataLink

With dataLink and dataLink pro, you can track the sample from plating to automatic colony counting.

Parameter the label that will be stuck on the edge of the dish. The colony counting is then optimised.

Applications

TheeasySpiral Dilute plater is used for enumeration during microbial control.
The Spiral plating technique allows 4 log dilutions on the same plate and the automatic dilution ramp of the device allows for the increase of the enumeration range. This technique is adapted to the realization of challenge-tests requiring several dilutions to the 10th before plating. The Spiral technique is also used for the detection of quality indicators with a criterion higher than 100 CFU/g. The ISO 4833-2 defines the use of this technique for the research of total flora.
