Manual Split Colonies
Users may split colonies by performing the initial count (
Automated Count, Manual Count,
or
User Defined
Template Count
), and splitting colonies manually. Colonies should be split when two or more colonies are very
close together and are counted as one colony by the software.
To split colonies, ensure that
the
Manual Split Colonies
tab
is highlighted in yellow.
A new window will ask the user
to “Draw lines through the
colonies you want to split then
release.”
If the colony is hard to see,
zoom in on the colony. In the
Zoom/Pan
module, move the
slider button towards the +
sign on the right to zoom in. A
rectangular object will appear
in the
Zoom/Pan
module.
Move it over the area of
interest. The central Petri dish
image will appear larger in the
area identified by the
rectangular object.
