Fossomatic™ FC performs accurate milk analysis using somatic cell counting. It is a high capacity analyser (up to 600 samples per hour) that meets the demands of farmers in need of fast and reliable payment and Dairy Herd Improvement (DHI) results. Fossomatic™ FC is based on flow cytometry technology that counts somatic cells in compliance with ISO/IDF and FDA/NCIMS standards.
Fossomatic™ FC somatic cell counter can be integrated with the MilkoScan FT+ to form a CombiFoss™ FT+. Supported by a dedicated Foss IntegratorTM  software, which provides a wide range of quality assurance and GLP features. Foss Integrator shares the same interface for all CMT instruments.
Precision to match your standards
Do not accept dictated instrument settings. With the Fossomatic FC you can decide thresholds according to local require- ments for payment and herd improvement.
In many countries the average cell count is falling as dairy herd health improves. This has led to even lower payment limits as well as bonus agreements for milk with an SCC below lower limits. With the dynamic precision system of the Fossomatic FC you have the power to do things your way.
Improved flow of reliable, traceable measurements
The Fossomatic FC offers unique performance with the ability to measure up to 600 samples an hour.
This speed gives you a good, profitable flow of samples through your laboratory, more unique features such the FMA test makes it simple to monitor the performance of the instrument. The FMA test allows rapid and convenient instrument standardi- zation according to the direct cell count reference method.
Safe and effective, handling of dyes and reagents
Waste liquid is split into milk, high and low concentrated waste, helping you to dispose of waste in a safe and effective way. An automatic rinsing function keeps the instrument clean to ensure optimal performance. It is quick to load reagents and operators can avoid contact with dye using the enclosed dye bag system.
Versatile options
With  the  ability  to  measure  up  to  10  million  cells  per  mil- limetre,  you  can  test  a  range  of  samples  from  cows,  goats, sheep or buffalo.
The Fossomatic™ somatic cell counter can be integrated with the MilkoScan™ FT + to form a CombiFoss™ FT+.
Accurate somatic cell analysis with flow cytometry
The measuring principle is flow cytometry which complies with IDF and FDA/NCIMS requirements for somatic cell counting. Flow Cytometry is a technique used for counting and charac- terization of particles and cells. It can be directly translated as “the measurement of cells while they are flowing”.
Patented dynamic precision
Until  the  late  1990’s  all  somatic  cell  counting  (SCC)  equip- ment had been pre-set to count on the same fixed amount of milk sample, typically from 1 µl up to 10 µl (depending on the instrument).
Precision Set-up
The Precision Set-up software feature allows the Fossomatic™ to run milk samples at a higher precision in certain areas, for example  around  grading  limits,  without  significant  loss  of capacity.
Naturally, the smaller the milk sample counted, the larger the statistical errors in the result. Poisson-statistics can be applied to the counting of milk cells, i.e. the larger the sample, the better the precision, as described by the rule of repeatability: relative repeatability [in percent] =100/square root of counted cells. The average SCC of two or more measurements is more ac- curate than a single measurement, but performing two meas- urements  on  the  same  sample  means  doubling  the  analysis time. That is where dynamic precision comes in.
The Precision Set-up offers three options:
Standard precision set-up
Fixed Repeatability
Dynamic Repeatability
If  you  take  a  large  portion  of  stained  milk  cells  and  keep analysing this for an extended period, the results will give an increasingly accurate average cell count and a better precision as the analysis progresses. If after 2 seconds, 3,3 µl have been analysed, 6,6 µl will have been analysed after 4 seconds, and so on. But how do you find out when to stop?
Standard Precision Set-up
This set-up refers to the default way of analysing. The working factor is fixed, giving a better coefficient of Variation (CV), as the SCC gets higher.
With a fast computer you can calculate the SCC as often as necessary and to stop the analysis as soon as the result has reached the required precision. In this way dynamic precision satisfies  the  requirements  for  both  accuracy  and  speed  in somatic cell counting.
Fixed Repeatability
This set-up is used if a better repeatability (lower CV) is needed in  the  low  SCC  area.  All  samples  analysed  in  the  SCC  area where the CV is kept fixed, are measured at a lower working factor  than  in  the  Standard  Set-up,  and  therefore  time  per analysis increases.
Working Factor (WF)
The working factor refers to the volume of milk sample in which the somatic cells are counted.
Repeatability
The repeatability (CV) expresses to which degree the ana- lyser is capable of counting the same amount of somatic cells in the same milk sample.
The higher the SCC, the better the CV. The lower the WF, the better the CV.
Dynamic Repeatability
When selecting Dynamic Repeatability, it is possible to define up to three SCC areas, with a higher precision (lower working factor)  than  offered  by  the  Standard  Set-up.  This  is  used  to give an even better precision around grading limits.
How Fossomatic™ FC works
The Fossomatic FC counts somatic cells based on recognition of DNA from the cells.
A mixture of milk and staining solution is surrounded by a sheath liquid and passed through a flow cell. In the flow cell, the stained somatic cells are exposed to light of a specific wavelength. The cells then emit fluorescent light pulses at a different wavelength, the pulses are counted and displayed.
The design of the flow cell ensures that only one somatic cell is detected at a time. Higher preci- sion can be obtained at grading limits using precision set-up feature.
Best of the new
To match the increasing demands of the modern laboratory Fossomatic FC includes a number of new features that optimise laboratory efficiency and keep costs down:
Higher speed, up to 600 samples per hour
Improved rinse system prevents blockage and reduces down- time
Improved reliability/accessibility of flow system parts – keeps maintenance down
All liquids are temperature-controlled to optimise the staining and cleaning
Universal software platform (Foss Integrator) with improved data handling and integrated help system makes it easy to handle all FOSS CMT analysers
Not only for cow’s milk, also milk from other species such as sheep and goats
Conveyor system with in-built Sample ID
You have a choice of a few automation solutions for the FOSS analysers to match your needs best. Two impressive, and highly appreciated by our customers, standard conveyor systems are available: Conveyor 4000 and Conveyor Basic. They are intel- ligent units with a built-in microprocessor, controlled by the analyser and providing at minimum:
Rack advance and positioning of sample bottles under the stirrer and pipette
Sample identification for the “ladder” position of the bar codes*
Automatic detection of check-samples
CombiFoss™
The  Fossomatic™  FC  can  be  integrated  with  a  MilkoScan FT+  multi-component  analyser  to  form  a  CombiFoss™  FT+, without reducing sample capacity and at the same time pro- moting operational effectiveness by sharing the Foss Integrator software platform.
Conveyor  4000  is  the  advanced  and  most  flexible  solution with many additional useful functions like:
Automatic rewind of racks with samples to be re-tested
Sample identification for bar codes of all positions, as well as 2D and RF-tags*
Unique bottle rotation  mechanism,  for  fully  automated sample identification*
Sample temperature conservation
Extensions for creating more space for the bottle racks*
Sample buffering*
A semi-automatic option ideal for milk-testing laboratories with a lower sample throughput is also available. In this version, a plate is placed instead of the conveyor.
The Fossomatic™ FC gives you the analysis performance you need to meet new demands for analysis efficiency, and it of- fers  you  exciting  new  business  opportunities  at  the  leading edge of milk analysis.
