Product Principles

EMMA is revolutionizing the world of microbialenvironmental monitoring thanks to its high-endcomponents, housed in a modular benchtop format thatscales with your needs.

An in-house developed patent-pending optical systemguarantees complete acquisition of 100% of the Petridish surface with the lid on.In combination with an integrated barcode reader and a software platform thatis 21 CFR part 11 compliant,EMMA is ready to take yourdigitization & your data integrity to the next level.

Our patent-pending optics offer a comprehensive view: capturing100% of the Petri dish surface without necessitating lid removal.Unlike conventional camera methods such as telecentric or pinholelenses, which only display the flat bottom of the Petri dish when thelid remains on-leading to significant information loss—Microtechnixhas innovated a new optical sgstem.Built upon a hole inspection lens,this system seamlessly captures both the flat bottom and the verticalwalls of the Petri dish in a single image, all without lid removal.

The calibration parameters you employ are saved in a digital file that’s valid for your system and any other Microtechnix imaging device, anywhere in the world. Just send the digital file to another lab for complete consistency and a simple, smooth assay validation. Microtechnix calibration methodology of imaging systems ensures reproducibility and repeatability of the result between systems. Consistency is then over time, between labs and operators. Combined with analysis powered by artificial intelligence, EMMA ensures a reproducible and consistent reading of Petri dishes avoiding false negatives in Environmental Monitoring.

Product Characteristics

• Image acquisition of 100% of the surface while the lid is on the Petri dish to avoid contamination

• Compatible with Petri Dishes from every supplier: Ø 55mm – Ø 90mm, both locking & standard lid.

• Compatible with all types of media (TSA, brown, red,…)

• Integrated 2D barcode reader to automatically identify the Petri dish in the scanner

• Focus on Data integrity to ensure error-proof sample identification and audit trail (21 CFR part 11 compliant)

• Reporting tools and possibility to connect to the EM software (Novatek, Moda, LIMs,…)

• AI-models available as powerful upgrade to further automate your analysis
