Summary: | To efficiently and accurately count a colony on a culture medium.SOLUTION: A colony detection system comprises: a culture medium for visualizing a cultured colony; a selection part for selecting information including a kind of the culture medium and a count function of the colony; an imaging part for imaging a culture surface of the culture medium; a first information detection part for detecting code information included in the imaged image; a first colony count part for counting a number of the colony cultured on the culture medium, by performing processing according to the information selected by the selection part and code information detected by the first information detection part, with respect to the imaged image; a code information generation part for generating new code information; an image update part for updating the code information included in the imaged image to new code information for generating a new culture image; a second information detection part for detecting new code information included in the new culture image; and a second colony count part for counting a number of the colony which is cultured on the culture medium based on the new culture image.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
【課題】培地媒体上のコロニーを効率よく、かつ精度よくカウントする。【解決手段】コロニー検出システムは、培養されたコロニーを顕在化させる培地媒体と、培地媒体の種類及びコロニーのカウント機能を含む情報を選択する選択部と、培地媒体の培養面を撮像する撮像部と、撮像画像に含まれるコード情報を検出する第1情報検出部と、撮像画像に対して、選択部で選択された情報と、第1情報検出部で検出されたコード情報と、に応じた処理を行って、培地媒体で培養されたコロニーの数をカウントする第1コロニーカウント部と、新たなコード情報を生成するコード情報生成部と、撮像画像に含まれるコード情報を新たなコード情報に更新した新たな培地画像を生成する画像更新部と、新たな培地画像に含まれる新たなコード情報を検出する第2情報検出部と、新たな培地画像に基づいて培地媒体で培養されたコロニーの数をカウントする第2コロニーカウント部と、を備える。【選択図】図1 |
