The Wizard™ CompactDry™ Reader and CompactDry™ Media Plates

Turn minutes into seconds by bringing automation to your colony counting process! Where it would usually take hours to complete all of the colony counts associated with food testing, The Wizard™ CompactDry™ Reader will take just seconds. This saves your technicians valuable time in their testing processes.

The Wizard™ CompactDry™ Reader's software was built to identify colony formation on each of the individual CompactDry™ plates. The camera is calibrated to recognize chromogenic changes in the media and colony formation on the surface of the plate. The CompactDry™ plate line presents a variety of organism-specific or total count tests, packaged neatly in a sophisticated and sturdy cassette.
