Live Cell Analysis for Adherent Cell Growth Tracking
Celigo Direct Cell Counting Benefits
- Rapid scanning and analysis of multi-well plates; 384-well plate can be analyzed in <5 min
- Easy-to-use interface to image and identify a wide variety of cells in bright field
- Determine growth characteristics of cells in situ, directly where they are grown
- Reports growth curves, cell counts, confluence, doubling time and doubling rate for each well
- Analyze cells growing in T-flasks (T-25 and T-75); T-75 flasks can be analyzed in ~15 min
Growth Tracking of Adherent Cells During or Post Drug Treatment
Determination of the growth characteristics of primary cells and cell lines requires live cell analysis methods and can be accurately analyzed in only a few minutes using the Celigo cell imaging cytometer. The Celigo provides a unique combination of bright field imaging, image segmentation and analysis tools for researchers to monitor their cell cultures. Specifically, whole-well imaging and label-free bright field cell counting allow the Celigo user to generate growth curves over time and monitor cell counts, doubling time and doubling rate, and measure confluence at the individual well level.
Label-free, Non-destructive, No Need to Trypsinize Adherent Cells
The growth tracking application automatically integrates label-free cell counts of the same well/flask from different time points to provide a live cell analysis method to directly direct measurement measure of growth rates and doubling times, which is also a good overall assessment of cell health.
Two Live Cell Analysis Methods to Produce a Label-Free Proliferation Curve
Method 1 – Cell Segmentation
Method 2 – Cell Confluence
