Product description

Precise automated colony counting and inhibition zone measurement with ±0.2 mm accuracy for up to 150 mm Petri dishes.

The Interscience Scan 4000 is a high-definition colony counter and inhibition zone reader designed for microbiology laboratories specializing in pharmaceutical, medical, and animal health research. Manufactured in France and released in 2022, this advanced device supports automated counting of microbial colonies on square dishes up to 120 mm and round Petri dishes up to 150 mm diameter.

Key technical features include:

  • Ultra HD imaging for enhanced resolution and accuracy in colony detection
  • Measurement precision of ±0.2 mm, critical for antimicrobial susceptibility assays
  • Rapid processing capability: reads up to 16 inhibition zones within 2 to 4 seconds
  • Compatibility with standard protocols such as EUCAST, CA-SFM, and CLSI, ensuring integration into clinical diagnostics and molecular diagnostics workflows
  • Supports various inhibition zone formats including wells, penicylinders, and paper disks
  • Operates across voltage from 100 to 240V at 50/60 Hz, accommodating global lab settings

The Scan 4000 is essential for biotechnology applications involving bioprocessing, gene editing, and synthetic biology, where precise microbial colony analysis impacts molecular cloning and biomanufacturing quality control. This system is widely adopted in microbiology and biopharmaceutical production pipelines requiring high-throughput, reproducible colony enumeration and inhibition zone measurements.

The unit is shipped with a power cord but does not include computer hardware or software licenses. Despite minor cosmetic wear, it is functionally verified for power operation, making it a reliable instrument for laboratory microbiologists and researchers in clinical diagnostics and biotechnology research fields.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
