Features and Benefits
Advance quality
Standardize inoculation volume, streaking patterns and incubation times, reduce human variation and help improve quality of results.1, 2
Enhance efficiencies
Automate laboratory workflow from sample processing to digital plate reading.
Increase staff productivity
Increase productivity and free up laboratory staff to focus efforts on clinically complex work.1
Enhanced incubation

Enhance bacterial growth3 by standardizing incubation times and conditions in a controlled and closed automated environment with the BD Kiestra™ ReadA Compact.

Features and Benefits
High throughput

Achieve high throughput and high-quality inoculation with BD Kiestra™ InoqulA sample processor.

Capacity
Connect up to three BD Kiestra™ ReadA Compact incubation and digital imaging systems to form a storage capacity of up to 3,456 plates.
Maximize staff

Take on more workload1, reallocate lab staff1 and improve staff productivity and lab capacity by extending walkaway time1.
