Biolumix Instrument

Description
Each BioLumix instrument has a capacity of 32 simultaneous samples with a single incubating temperature. One personal computer can control over 30 instruments, resulting in the ability to monitor over 1,000 samples simultaneously, allowing the system to grow with the users needs. The interlocking, front-loading design allows for safe stacking of multiple instruments, saving precious laboratory counter space.

The instrument collects the optical data generated from each vial location at a rate of 10 readings per hour. Samples can be randomly introduced into the system at any time. The instrument is a temperature-controlled incubator capable of either heating or cooling to obtain any temperature in the range of 15-60°C.

The modular structure of the system enables use of multiple instruments controlled by a single PC. The multiplicity of temperatures is important whenever different tests requiring different temperatures are run simultaneously (e.g., total counts at 35°C and yeast at 30°C). Each BioLumix instrument has the formation of a drawer, enabling the customer to stack units on top of each other, thereby saving precious laboratory space.
