摘要:
The system is based on an apparatus (1) forming a closed chamber (2) inside which is arranged a superior and centred digital camera (15) oriented towards a removable support (17) either a tray of wells wherein are situated the liquid cultivating means or a plate on which is placed a solid cultivating means; the support (17) is arranged between lower lighting means (18) and upper and lateral lighting means (19) and are completed with light diffusers (20 and 21). The apparatus is provided externally with operation indicators, switches and taps and connections which are intended to the proper operation and control via a central computer. The system captures and interprets the images produced by the reactions which take place in the referred liquid or solid cultivation means, thereby converting said bacterial reactions into values, as well as analyzing the growth of micro-organisms.

It is based on an apparatus (1) forming a closed chamber (2) inside of which is installed an upper centered digital camera (15) oriented toward a removable support (17) over which is placed either a panel fitted with receptacles for holding the liquid culture mediums or a plate for placing on it a solid culture medium, the support (17) being located between lower lighting means (18) and upper lateral lighting means (19) complemented with light diffusers (20) and (21). The apparatus includes external operation indicators, switches, outlets and connections providing for appropriate operation and control through a central computer. The system captures and interprets the images produced by the reactions taking place in said culture mediums, either liquid or solid, allowing the bacterial reactions to be converted into values, in addition to analyzing microorganism growth.
