It is the first instrument ever built to be certified according to the ISO 16140 standard as an alternative method to the ISO 4833 standard. Available in different versions (50, 100, 150), it can reach a maximum throughput of 150 samples/hour.

FTS
Chemical Composition Analysis

Based on FTIR technology, the FTS series determine rapidly and very accurately the fine milk chemical composition with up to 64 parameters measured simultaneously. Available in different versions (400, 500, 600), it can reach a maximum throughput of 600 samples/hour.

FCM
Somatic Cell Counting

Based on flow cytometry technology, The SomaCount series determines rapidly and very accurately the somatic cells count in milk. Available in different versions (400, 500, 600), it can reach a maximum throughput of 600 samples/hour.

Milk Amyloid A Kit
Early Detection of Mastitis

Based on an ELISA technology, the MAA kits determines the Amyloid A Acute Phase Protein content in milk in order to make an early diagnosis of mastitis, reduce the use of antibiotics and preserve animal welfare.

Broad Spectrum MicroTabs

Broad Spectrum Microtabs II (BSM) is a tablet preservative containing a combination of Bronopol and Natamycin which prevents bacteria and yeast and mold. It is used to preserve milk samples, which will be analyzed on infrared instruments. It is an ideal preservative solution for longer-term preservation of milk samples when a short sample analysis turnaround time and refrigerated storage conditions cannot be guaranteed.

Process Automation

ILAS 3000
Automation for Combi systems

The Ilas 3000 robot automates and standardizes samples preparation on CombiFTS (and alternative methods) at a maximum throughput of up to 600 samples/hour in order to optimally standardize the analytical chain and reduce MSD.

Capper Robot

This robot dispenses the preservative and caps the bottles at a rate of 2500 bottles/hour. It can be equipped with an input/output module or a gravity roller depending on the space available.

Sorter Robot

The Sorter robot automatically sorts the samples according to the required analytical chains. Refrigerated to maintain the integrity of the samples, it can sort according to 6 different criteria at a high capacity.

Complete Automation Solutions

Thanks to our analysers, combined with automation systems (sorting, aliquoting and sample transport), laboratory management and productivity can be fully streamlined and optimised.

ILAS 4000
Automation for bacteria counters

The new Ilas 4000 robot automates and standardizes samples preparation on the BactoCount IBC (and alternative methods) at a maximum throughput of 200 samples/hour. Fully refrigerated, samples are identified (RFID chips or barcode), sorted, inverted, uncapped, analyzed, recapped and replaced in their original tray position.

ORI-COLLECTOR
The universal sampler unit for milking robot

France Conseil Élevage in collaboration with Sayca (Iberian company) has decided to take up the challenge of developing its own robotic sampler intended for Conseil Livestock companies for milk performance control.

Methods Standardization

Total Flora Proficiency Testings ISO 17043 (IBC)

Our international Cow and Goat Milk Total Flora (IBC) ISO 17043 Proficiency Tests are organized 10 times/year (4 times/year for goat milk) in collaboration with Actalia-Cecalait (French reference laboratory), to monitor the optimal standardization of our BactoCount bacteria counters (and alternative methods), allow the implementation of a National, European or Universal Conversion Equation, and guarantee IBC/CFU results worldwide equivalence.

Calibration set
Urea SRMs (PN FR-1235)

Our urea SRMs calibration sets are used to control the optimal standardization and calibration of our FTS and DairySpec infrared analyzers and guarantee urea results international equivalence.

Lyophilized Bacteria SRM

Manufactured with bacteria present in raw milk, these long shelf-life Secondary Reference Materials (SRM), quickly reconstitutable, allow to check the optimum standardization and operation of the BactoCount bacteria counters series.

Lyophilized Somatic Cells SRM

Composed of 5 long shelf-life Secondary Reference Materials (SRM), quickly reconstitutable, these calibration sets (100-1000 k SCC/ml) allow to control the Somacount and BactoCount (and alternative methods) optimal standardization and calibration.
