Micro Imaging Technology Inc (MMTC) Precio

Micro Imaging Technology, Inc. is a development stage company that develops breakthrough, laser-based and microbial identification technology. The company is headquartered in San Clemente, California. The firm's microbial identification system manages pathogen identification time for both the food safety and clinical industries. Its MIT 1000 is a laser-based microbial identification system capable of identifying pathogenic bacteria just minutes after culturing. The device uses the principles of light scattering to discriminate various bacteria cells that are suspended in filtered water. Incident laser light both reflects off the bacteria's outer surface and penetrates the body of the bacterium, the light interacts with any structural features and eventually emerges from inside the cell. These light patterns create a signature that is captured and stored in a computer database. The MIT 1000 features approximately 35 photo detectors that surround the sample vial and collect light scattering intensities that are generated when a cell intersects the laser beam.
