Autoturb 3 Microbiological Assay System
The Autoturb3 System is designed to analyze the
potency of antibiotics, vitamins and related
substances. This system can be used to assay
virtually all known antibiotics. The Autoturb3 can
also assay many vitamins, including the following:
B12, Folic Acid, Niacinamide, Pyridoxine (B6),
Pantothenic Acid and Panthenol. The complete system
consists of 2 modules:
Reader and Diluter Module: Automatically
prepares the required dilution of the sample and the
standard reference substance with an inoculated
liquid growth medium.
Spectrophotometer displaying a digital indication of
turbidity of the killed suspension in each sample.
Incubation Module: This unit operates at the
exact temperature to enhance growth of the test
micro-organisms.
* Accuracy: Clinical trials have demonstrated
precision to we within 2-3%. Speed and repeatability
significantly exceeds that achieved by most proven
manual methods currently in use.
* Space Saving: The Autoturb3 System is a
compact, self-contained assay center requiring
minimal laboratory space.
* User Friendly: Test status and error
messages are communicated to the operator promptly.
* Data Display: Transmittance or absorbance
data is indicated on the Spectrophotometer digital
display with a hard copy print-out of the assay
results.
* Data Validation: Results reliability easily
confirmed by a blue dye test.
* Data Output: An RS232-C serial port is
provided to allow transfer of results data to a host
computer or database.
* Low Maintenance: The micro-processor
controlled circuitry and solid state sensor
technology, combined with the built-in self
diagnostic routine, minimizes machine down-time and
maintenance costs.
