Use Cellometer Vision to measure nucleated cell concentration in whole blood without lysing RBC
Cellometer Vision incorporates image based cell counting and fluorescence detection in a compact and easy-to-use instrument. With fluorescence detection capabilities, Cellometer Vision is an ideal solution for many complex cell population characterization assays such as rapidly counting white-blood-cells in whole blood. Acridine orange (AO) is a fluorescent nucleic acid stain that has been used to measure nucleated cell concentration in various cell types, including mammalian cell lines, mammalian primary cells, and yeasts. AO is a membrane-permeable dye that stains nucleated cells green. The following article describes a simple and specific immunoassay to detect cellular immune [...]
Quantification of Pathogenic Yeast / Fungi
Rapid Quantification of Pathogenic Fungi by Cellometer Image-Based Cytometry Joint collaboration between Nexcelom Bioscience and Merrimack College Objective: To demonstrate a simple image cytometry method for the quantification of viable pathogenic fungi, Histoplasma capsulatum. To validate image cytometry as a viable alternative method to CFU counting, a method that is time-consuming (sometimes taking 1-2 weeks for the formation of visible colonies), labor-intensive, and limited in efficiency and sensitivity. To validate image cytometry as a viable alternate to flow cytometry, due to the high cost, complexity, and biosafety containment issues associated with the use of flow cytometry for analysis of pathogenic [...]
1-Step Yeast Concentration and Yeast Viability: Fermentation Monitoring for Brewing
Monitoring of yeast viability during the fermentation process is an important quality control procedure employed by the brewing industry. Consistent yeast viability during the fermentation process is critical for batch-to-batch consistency and overall product quality. The Cellometer Auto X4 (10x) Fluorescent Cell Counter is specifically optimized for simple, 1-step determination of yeast concentration and viability and is ideal for both small and large breweries looking to automate their fermentation monitoring. Performance of the Cellometer Auto X4 (10x) has been proven in the largest breweries in the U.S. […]
