How it Works

Prepare Sample

Prepare Sample Switched between brightfield and fluorescent modes using software.

Multiple assays methods can be used by different users.





Assay #1: mix AO with cell sample for nucleated primary cells

Assay #2: mix PI with cell sample for PI viability & live cell concentration

Assay #3:
mix trypan blue with cell sample for viability & live cell concentration

Assay #4:
directly measure highly viable sample w/o trypan blue for total cell concentration

Cellometer Cell Counting Chamber

Cellometer Cell Counting Chamber With precision optical properties for imaging.

With consistent volume of liquid measured.

Pipette 20 µl cell sample into a counting chamber. Spread cells evenly inside.

Capture Cell Images

Prepare Sample

Brightfield and fluorescent cell images are both taken for primary samples or fluorescent viability assays.

Cellometer captures cell images from multiple locations.

Cellometer Image Analysis Software

Cellometer Cell Counting Chamber Automatic analysis of cell images to identify:

• Live / dead cells
• Fluorescent cells
• Exclude sample debris
• De-cluster cell clumps for better accuracy
• Cell size
• Irregular cell shapes

Sample Calculator
Adjust cell sample for desired concentration by entering the target concentration in the calculator. The software will determine automatically for the amount diluents to add or to spin down for less liquid. Input desired number of cells, the calculator will output amount of liquid to pipette.

Export Data
Cell counting data is saved in a table. The data table can be printed, or export to Excel for further calculation.
