Interview with Amandine Pralus, Laboratory Technician at BIOSE:

Why did you need an automatic plater?

We were looking for a device that could replace the need for technicians, to enable us to carry out counts in a more repeatable way, but also to save time.

How has easySpiral Dilute changed the way you work?

The easySpiral Dilute saves us a lot of time. In fact, during its operation, the technicians can prepare subsequent samples. The automatic dilutions and plating and the automatic printing of labels lighten our workload, avoiding, for example, the need to write on the labels manually. With the automatic recording of all the computers, it optimizes repeatability and traceability.

Why did you choose Interscience?

Interscience is a local, dynamic company that is looking to develop and improve its products. The proximity enables rapid exchanges and collaboration when it comes to optimizing equipment. What’s more, we like the fact that you can test the equipment free of charge before you invest in it.


We’ve encountered a few difficulties when reinstalling the software or changing faulty parts, but Interscience has always been available to help us with training, responsive after-sales and a detailed website.
