In today’s fast-paced dairy industry, food safety testing has to be quick, reliable, and fully traceable—because when public health and regulatory compliance are on the line, there’s no room for error. That’s where the Zeulab COMET32 system steps in a fully autonomous solution that revolutionizes the way we screen for antibiotic residues in milk.
Whether you’re a dairy processor, quality control lab, or food safety authority, COMET32, available at Vendart, empowers you to detect antibiotics with precision—without the guesswork or manual intervention.
What is Zeulab COMET32?
The Zeulab COMET32 is an automated reader and incubator designed to work with Zeulab’s range of microtiter plate tests. It simplifies, standardizes, and accelerates the process of screening antibiotics in milk, offering real-time detection with digital accuracy.
This isn’t just another lab tool—it’s a compact lab assistant, built to ensure consistency, reliability, and regulatory compliance.
How COMET32 Works: The Science Behind the Simplicity
At its core, COMET32 is based on microbiological inhibition testing a trusted method in antibiotic residue detection. Here’s how it works:
- Incubation
COMET32 maintains precise conditions (either 63°C ±1°C or 37°C ±1°C, depending on the test) for optimal bacterial growth within each well of the test plate.
- Real-Time Monitoring
As incubation progresses, the system monitors color changes in each well. These changes are directly related to bacterial metabolic activity—which is inhibited when antibiotics are present.
- Intelligent Interpretation
COMET32’s onboard software uses advanced algorithms to analyze the color kinetics and time profile, determining the endpoint of the test automatically.
- Instant Results + Traceability
The final result—positive or negative for antibiotics—is displayed on a built-in touch screen and saved internally for complete traceability and audit readiness.
No manual readings. No subjectivity. No delays.
Why COMET32 Matters in the Dairy Industry
Milk must be free from antibiotic residues before it reaches the market. With tighter global regulations and rising demand for transparency, tools like COMET32 are not just useful—they’re non-negotiable.
Key Benefits:
32 Samples Simultaneously
Boost throughput while maintaining consistency across batches.
Plug-and-Play Simplicity
Minimal training required. Touchscreen interface makes operation intuitive.
Total Traceability
Results are automatically stored perfect for quality audits and compliance records.
Validated Performance
Externally validated by MQD – Institute for Analytics, Hygiene and Product Quality GmbH, a leading German lab, ensuring scientific credibility.
Compact & Lightweight
At only 3 kg with a 305 x 305 x 96 mm footprint, COMET32 fits seamlessly into any lab or processing facility.
USB Connectivity
Easily export reports and data to your PC for further analysis or recordkeeping.
Which Antibiotics Can COMET32 Detect?
When paired with ZEULAB’s broad spectrum of microtiter plate tests (such as Brilliant or Eclipse 100), COMET32 can detect residues from:
- Beta-lactams (e.g., Penicillin, Amoxicillin)
- Tetracyclines
- Sulfonamides
- Macrolides
- Aminoglycosides
It’s a multi-class detection system ideal for modern dairies where multiple antibiotic families might be in use.
Who is COMET32 For?
COMET32 is perfect for:
- Dairy processing plants
For pre-release batch testing and regulatory compliance.
- Independent food safety labs
Who demand accuracy, repeatability, and traceable results.
- Farm cooperatives and milk collection centers
For on-site, rapid screening before milk reaches the supply chain.
- Government food safety agencies
As part of national surveillance programs.
