Spiral Biotech, An Advanced Instruments Company, produces a division of automated microbiology systems for research, food, dairy, and environmental sciences laboratories.

SBI first commercialized the technique of Spiral Plating in 1976. Since that time, the company has focused on automating the pre-analytical and analytical steps involved with traditional microbial enumeration. Spiral Biotech products include colony counters, plating systems, anaerobic workstations, susceptibility test software, air samplers, and sample prep tools.

Spiral Biotech's newest colony counting system - the Color QCount® with ColorCount™ color recognition software. The instrument is designed to work with the new chromogenic agars becoming popular for high-productivity colony counting that involves multiple strains of bacteria.

Contact Spiral Biotech or locate a local Spiral Biotech dealer for a demonstration of how the Color QCount and other SBI products can save your lab time, money, and increase throughput efficiency.
