Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document provides an overview of the easySpiral® range of automatic diluters and platers, highlighting their evolution, features, and applications in microbiological analysis. The easySpiral® method, invented in 1973, has been refined over the years to offer faster, simpler, and more cost-effective solutions for laboratories.

Spiral® Method Overview
The Spiral® method involves depositing a sample on a rotating Petri dish using a microsyringe, forming a logarithmically decreasing spiral. This allows for bacterial concentration determination by counting colonies in specific dish sectors. The method is compliant with ISO 7218, ISO 4833-2, FDA-BAM, and AOAC 977.27 standards.

Product Evolution
  • 1979: Introduction of Spiral® DS.
  • 1996: Launch of Spiral® DS+.
  • 2010: Introduction of easySpiral® and easySpiral Pro®.
  • 2012: Launch of easySpiral Dilute®.
  • 2019: Introduction of easySpiral Pro® Milk.

Key Features
  • Automatic disinfection and overflow technology to prevent cross-contamination.
  • Intuitive control panel with multiple plating modes.
  • High precision with a glass syringe accuracy of 0.5%.
  • Fast plating cycle of 25 seconds.
  • USB connectivity for programmable volumes and traceability.

easySpiral Dilute®
This model combines automatic dilution and plating, capable of performing up to 5 serial dilutions and plating on a single Petri dish. It supports a countable range from 30 to 1x1012 CFU/mL, significantly reducing manual labor and consumable usage.

Plating Modes
  • Circle Mode: Allows 3 or 6 dilutions on one Petri dish.
  • Pour Mode: For homogeneous deposition without agar.
  • Exponential Mode: Decreasing surface concentration for easy counting.
  • Constant Mode: Homogeneous surface deposition.

Comparison and Efficiency
The document compares manual and automatic methods, highlighting a 50% reduction in time and consumables with the easySpiral Dilute®. It also details the technical specifications and accessories available for each model.

Conclusion
The easySpiral® range offers advanced solutions for microbiological analysis, ensuring efficiency, accuracy, and compliance with international standards. The technology is designed to meet the needs of various sectors, including food, medical, and pharmaceutical industries.
