The CO 8000 cell density meter is a small,
portable and easy to use instrument for
measuring the density of E.coli and yeast
cells in suspension at 600nm and has
been designed to give comparable
readings to other spectrophotometers.
Ideal for use in small research labs, where
cultures may be grown in 200ml to 5 litre
volume conical flasks, the CO 8000 may
be taken to the area of the lab where the
cells are grown or used in incubation
cabinets or under anaerobic conditions.
Up to 99 results may be stored for
subsequent recall, printing or download
to spreadsheet. Since it can accept either
10mm pathlength cuvettes or tubes, the
instrument may be used with Ehrlenmyer
side arm flasks. In addition, cell culture
spillages can be easily wiped from the
smooth surface and then removed from
the cell compartment area by pouring
ethanol through the unit. Sterilization
may be achieved by pouring through
formaldehyde or ethylene oxide.
The instrument has rechargeable batteries
that are automatically charged when it is
connected to the mains. This allows
almost 1 month use under normal
operating conditions when fully charged
offering great flexibility and portability. A
600nm LED source in combination with a
fibre optic is used to obtain the optical
density measurement. The instrument
may be linked via a serial lead to either a
serial printer for hardcopy output or to a
PC for download of results to
spreadsheet.
