Bacteria Analysis
Tomocube's Bacterial Cell Counter offers faster and more accurate bacterial analysis using RI-based counting compared to traditional labor-intensive and delicate methods.
Label-free
image live bacteria directly without labeling probes
High 3D resolution imaging
enable imaging of bacteria sized down to 0.2μm
Quantification based on RI
calculate volume and mass of bacteria
Single cell quantification
quantify lipids in live bacteria without any preparation
Batch counting and quantification
automatically process multiple data with one click
Time-lapse imaging of live bacterial growth
K.Pneumoniae Ampicillin treated
K.Pneumoniae Control
Key Software Features
Individual Bacteria Detection
Bacteria exist in colonies, making it difficult to identify individual bacterium.
BCC (Bacteria Cell Counter) automatically detects and counts single bacterium.
BCC (Bacteria Cell Counter) automatically detects and counts single bacterium.
Customizable counting parameters
Selectively choose bacteria of spheroid or ellipsoid shape, or bacteria within specified diameter and length
Generates batch reports
Batch report provides volume, mass and bacteria cell count. Also calculates bacteria concentration in a solution if given sample volume and dilution factors.
