The DensitomAX is a compact benchtop densitometer for precise determination of turbidity of suspensions according to the McFarland standard. The device has been specifically designed for use in microbiological laboratories and enables reliable standardization of samples for identification procedures and antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST). The measurement is based on the determination of optical density with digital display of the values in McFarland units. This allows cell density to be adjusted quickly and reproducibly – a crucial prerequisite for valid and comparable analytical results.

Precision and Reproducibility

The DensitomAX provides precise turbidity measurement in the range of 0.00 to 6.0 McFarland and also allows measurements at higher concentrations. The device is delivered with a dedicated factory calibration. To ensure long-term stable results, DensitomAX can be verified at any time using defined McFarland standards and recalibrated if required. Multi-point calibrations enable precise adjustment to specific requirements and sample types.

Efficient Integration into Laboratory Workflows

The DensitomAX is part of a coordinated system for the preparation of standardized suspension solutions. In combination with ready-to-use NaCl tubes, manual steps - such as filling and reading- can be reduced to a minimum.The intuitive operation allows fast integration into existing laboratory processes. Measurement results are available within seconds, enabling efficient workflow management.

Flexible Application Options

Thanks to the supplied adapters, DensitomAX is compatible with various tube types and supports different diameters and materials. This makes the device highly flexible for use in different laboratory environments and applications. In addition to classical applications in microbiological diagnostics, DensitomAX is also suitable for life-science or food-industry applications.

Reliability and Device Safety

The device complies with applicable European directives for laboratory equipment and meets requirements regarding electrical safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and environmental regulations. This ensures safe and compliant operation in professional laboratory environments. The robust design as well as easy maintenance additionally contribute to long-term usability and operational reliability.
