Who the ms1000 is for
- Pharma QC labs identifying environmental monitoring and OOS isolates every week.
- Food and beverage labs tracking spoilage organisms and contaminants.
- Research and university labs working across bacteria, yeasts and moulds.
If you send isolates out today, or use slow biochemical kits, the ms1000 brings identification in-house. Need more speed per plate? Compare it with the Autof ms2000 (about 960 samples per hour) on the series page.
How it works
- 1SpotColony + matrix
- 2RunLoad the 96-spot plate
- 3ReadName + confidence score
The ms1000 reads each organism’s protein fingerprint with MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and matches it against its reference database.
- Spot a colony on the disposable 96-spot target plate and add matrix.
- Load the plate and start the run.
- Review the organism name and confidence score.
Hands-on time for a full plate of 96 samples is under 20 minutes.
Applications
- Environmental monitoring — identify isolates by room and location and build trends
- OOS and deviation investigations — name the organism to narrow the root cause
- Water systems — recognise water-borne organisms
- Food and beverage — identify spoilage organisms and contaminants
- Research microbiology
What changes in daily lab work
- Every relevant isolate identified, not just the few you can afford to send out.
- Same-day answers during investigations.
- Disposable target plates — no plate cleaning between runs.
- Results in your own records, ready for trending and audits.
Independent evaluation
The ms1000 has been compared with the Bruker Biotyper in a peer-reviewed study.

FAQ
How many samples can the ms1000 identify per day?
More than 1,000, with 96 spots per disposable target plate.
Which organisms are in the database?
More than 15,000 strains covering 1,003 genera and 4,943 species, including bacteria, yeasts and filamentous fungi.
What is the difference between the ms1000 and the ms2000?
The ms2000 uses a solid-state laser and reads about 960 samples per hour, against about 300 for the ms1000. See the model comparison.
What is the price of the Autof ms1000 in Bangladesh?
It depends on configuration, database and service package. We quote the instrument and the cost per identification.
Who installs and supports it?
Our engineers install it, execute IQ/OQ, train your team and provide AMC.
