DataLinkTM is a full traceability system for the microbiological analysis of a sample, from its plating to colony counting with easySpiral® automatic platers and Scan® automatic colony counters. Plating data (volume, dilution, time, mode …) are on a Datamatrix or QR Code label on the Petri dish. You do not need a database anymore.
After incubation, the Datamatrix label is read by the Scan® software and gets all the information about the sample, from the plating to the colony counter settings.
Simply press « COUNT ». There is no more long data re-entering and potential errors. Export the results, photos and comments to LIMS*, ExcelTM, PDF, JPEG.

BENEFITS:
Security of the analyses
Full traceability
Error-free settings
Time-saving
No manual entry of data
Automatic settings of the Scan® colony counter
User-friendly
Stand-alone system
No use of database or network

Simple Analysis. Compact Delivery.
The NanoDrop Lite is a standalone microvolume instrument which uses our patented sample-retention system to deliver the same exceptional accuracy and reproducibility as other NanoDrop instruments. Its compact design, with built-in controls and software, makes the NanoDrop Lite small enough to fit on any benchtop, but powerful enough to deliver rapid, accurate and reproducible measurements.
The NanoDrop Lite is designed for labs that want the trusted NanoDrop technology, but don’t need the full performance or spectral data of the NanoDrop 2000|2000c or NanoDrop 8000. It is also ideal for labs that already have a NanoDrop instrument or that share a NanoDrop instrument with other labs.
Basic microvolume measurements with powerful local control:
- Employs the unique NanoDrop microvolume sampling technology for 1 µL nucleic acid and protein samples
- Measure nucleic acid concentration at 260 nm and purity using the 260/280 ratio
- Measure purified protein concentration at 280 nm
- Delivers the accuracy and reproducibility expected from NanoDrop instruments
- Uses built-in controls and software — no computer required
- Offers an optional printer for cryogenic labels
