FOSS Bactoscan FC+ determines the hygienic quality of raw milk based on bacterial counting (IBC). The performance of the instrument is 200 samples per hour.

BactoScan is the standard instrument for the dairy industry worldwide and in the EU more than 75% of milk produced is analysed with FOSS BactoScan. BactoScan gives consistent and accurate results by identifying individual bacteria, with excellent reproducibility compared to sample culture. The instrument’s efficient and ecological washing programmes minimise even the smallest residues from previous samples.

FOSS digital services ensure continuous operation of the instrument, even allowing software updates while analyses are in progress. In addition, all received data and calibrations are automatically stored.
