Neogen® Launches Petrifilm® Automated Feeder to Improve Efficiency of High-Throughput Food Safety Testing
Petrifilm end-to-end solution reduces hands-on enumeration time from 4 hours to 1 minute
The Petrifilm Automated Feeder works with existing Petrifilm Plate Reader Advanced equipment to help labs efficiently process microbial tests and meet food safety standards. It delivers consistent colony counting and improves lab productivity by automatically feeding and enumerating up to 300 Petrifilm Plates in 33 minutes, while integrating with existing lab workflows and systems.
The system is specifically designed for high-volume food safety testing labs processing more than 100,000 quality indicator tests per year. With Neogen's automated system, technicians no longer need to manually load plates into the reader or count and record initial results. Eliminating these tasks adds capacity for these labs, allowing more time for data analysis.
"This introduction is the latest step in the history of Petrifilm innovation to help make labs more efficient and productive," said
Preliminary Trials Demonstrate High ROI and Seamless Integration
Neogen combines hardware, software, and trained AI systems to deliver an end-to-end customer testing solution. Combined, the feeder and Petrifilm Plate Reader Advanced help labs overcome challenges associated with technician turnover, human error, and time-intensive training for new staff. It allows teams to focus on high-value tasks, automating other processes.
"The ability to load the feeder with up to 300 Petrifilm Plates and then just walk away has been a great time-saver for us," said
