Automated Cell Counters
Countess 3 and Countess 3 FL instruments
Thermo Fisher Scientific offers two high-performance, automated cell counters designed to meet the needs of any lab for accurate and precise cell counting without the drudgery, wasted time, subjectivity, and variability of manual hemocytometer counting. Developed by expert cell biologists with the aid of artificial intelligence, the Invitrogen Countess 3 and Countess 3 FL instruments are almost a paradox: automated cell counters that think like a cell biologist.
Countess 3 Automated Cell Counters provide highly accurate and precise brightfield and fluorescence cell counts even for challenging cell sample types. Automated features like rapid capture, autosave, and built-in calculators add convenience and time savings. Whether you’ve been counting cells manually or using an early-generation automated counter, the Countess 3 cell counters represent a significant upgrade in counting accuracy and workflow efficiency.
Vi-CELL BLU Cell Viability Analyzer
The faster Vi-CELL BLU cell analyzers automates the Trypan Blue Dye Exclusion method for cell viability analysis. The Vi-CELL BLU expedites processing by now having the option to use a 24-position sample carousel or a 96 well plate for sample delivery. Additional enhancements incorporated in the Vi-CELL BLU include:
– Fully automated sample preparation, analysis and post-run cleaning
– Small sample size
– Fast sample processing time
– Log-in samples on the fly
– Single sign-on with Active Directory
– Small laboratory footprint
– Flexible sample introduction – carousel or 96 well plate
– User-friendly reagent system
– Cell viability reported in percentage, concentration, and cell count
– Large sample capacity
– Data integrity tools for 21 CFR Part 11 compliance”
