The Portable Bacterial Turbidity Meter (model WGZ‑XB) is a handheld device that measures bacterial concentration in a liquid suspension by detecting turbidity. It is pre‑calibrated against a barium sulfate (BaSO₄) reference solution and displays readings directly in McFarland units (MCF), eliminating the need for manual chart matching or mental conversion. Typical applications include preparing standard inocula for antimicrobial susceptibility tests, monitoring microbial growth in fermentation processes, checking cell density in vaccine production, and conducting routine quality control in biologic laboratories. Professionals in hospitals, biological product manufacturers, port quarantine stations, and university research labs use this meter. Because the instrument is small and battery‑operated, it works equally well on a lab bench, in a production workshop, or at a remote sampling site.

The measurement principle is nephelometry: the meter shines a light beam into a sample tube, and bacteria in the suspension scatter the light. A photodetector placed at a 90‑degree angle captures the scattered light; the stronger the scattering, the higher the bacterial concentration. An internal microprocessor converts this signal into an MCF turbidity value. This optical method eliminates the inconsistency of visual comparison against turbidity standards.

Key features include microcomputer control with a touch‑sensitive keypad and LCD backlit display, an RS232 serial port for data transfer, automatic reading stabilization (the meter can balance readings automatically or sample at set time intervals), an average measurement mode that quickly obtains accurate data even from unstable samples, a built‑in clock and memory for long‑term storage of calibration records and measurement data, multiple selectable measurement modes and units, a long‑life high‑intensity light source rated for 100,000 hours, and a precision optical system with reliable alignment and effective color compensation – all enabling direct readout of bacterial turbidity in MCF.

For best operation, place the instrument on a stable, level surface away from strong vibration; avoid direct sunlight or intense room lighting on the sample area; allow the sample to stand for about 30 seconds after mixing for best accuracy; keep the optical window clean with a soft cloth; the meter runs on rechargeable batteries or USB power, so it does not require a wall outlet in the field.
