APAS Independence Analysis Modules

The APAS Analysis Modules contain the artificial intelligence algorithms that work with the APAS Independence to enable digital microbiology culture plate reading.

The power of Analysis Modules

Each Analysis Module is designed with the microbiology workflow in mind to

Detect the presence of microbial growth on an agar plate
Determine how much growth is present on the plate
Differentiate between common colony morphologies
Use information to generate meaningful test reports
