Optronix releases all-new software platform for its popular
ColCount product
Leveraging many of the advances introduced with its sister
product, the GelCount, Oxford Optronix is proud to announce
general release of software version 5 for its popular ColCount
colony counter. Sales Director Dr Michael Rau remarked, “The
ColCount has met with incredible success since its launch
in 2002 and lots of work has gone into incrementally improving
both the hardware and its software front-end over the years.
With version 5 we’re introducing a step-change enhancement
in the flexibility and performance of the ColCount platform
as a whole, much of which based on user-feedback. And version
5 will not just benefit new users but is being rolled out
as a free upgrade to our existing user-base. Personally, that’s
something I’m proud of since I think it speaks volumes
for our customer-focused ethos”.

Optronix announces general availability of 'Large Area Sensors'
Oxford Optronix announces that it is now shipping its latest
range of unique Large Area (LAS) type tissue oxygen sensors.
LAS sensors have a robust catheter-type construction which
provide dissolved oxygen sensing over much larger areas/volumes
of tissue whilst still maintaining a small, overall diameter
in order to mitigate against potential tissue trauma.
Making
the announcement, CEO Dr Andy Obeid said "The ability
to be able to measure ‘integrated’ or ‘averaged’ oxygen values
over much larger volumes/areas of tissue can be advantageous
in situations where the tissue under investigation has a large
degree of spatial heterogeneity in its oxygen content (i.e.
where oxygen values can vary markedly from one micro-region
to the next). One of the unique benefits of LAS sensor technology
is to enable 'averaged' tissue oxygen measurements to be obtained
in a controlled way."
Another
potential benefit of the LAS sensor is that the oxygen measurement
takes place actually along the longitudinal axis of the catheter
– NOT at the tip. The ability of the LAS sensor to measure
tissue oxygen away from the site of insertion is considered
to be advantageous in some situations as this is the region
at which there will be maximal tissue trauma (due to mechanical
insertion) and also the region at which the tissue is most
occluded (due to mechanical compression).
Two
versions of the LAS sensor are available, featuring an oxygen
sampling area of either 1mm2 or 8mm2.
