BioSnap™ Macro

The BioSnap™ Macro is an advanced add-on or standalone system for rapidly measuring viral plaques, focus-forming and colony-counting bioassays in 6-well plates or Petri dishes.  Compatible with the ImmunoBot™ automated plate-loading system, the BioSnap™ Macro can be operated in a fully-automatic mode to scan and analyze up to 400-plates in a single run.  This space-saving device can fit virtually anywhere with minimal effort, while its variable-intensity software-controlled top+bottom white light sources readily produces publication-quality images.  Powered with CTL’s AI-based IntelliCount engine, the BioSnap™ Macro can image and analyze full plates within a minute, regardless of complex shapes, backgrounds, artifacts or clumping.
