Overview

	Fast, Accurate Cell Counting Streamlines the Cell Culture Process The cell counter’s software algorithm quickly provides accurate counting results for a variety of cell types by automatically de-clustering clumped cells, performing size- and roundness-based sorting, and identifying live/dead cells. The R1 cell counter can confirm cell counts prior to experimental data acquisition, quality check, passaging, or induction of differentiation. Select from default protocol settings for 18 of the 22 major cell types or customize a protocol to your specific cell type of interest. Get in touch

Accurate Cell Counting Accurately count clustered cells: The counter identifies single, clustered, live, and dead cells for counts with an accuracy similar to a hemocytometer. Exclude undesired particles with cell-size-based gates: Set the maximum and minimum cell sizes to filter for a given cell type. Accurately count small cells: The Live Cell Sensitivity function optimizes the recognition rate for cells less than 8 μm. Automated dilution calculator: Enter your desired concentrations, and the volume of cell suspension needed is automatically calculated. No trypan blue staining required: The Cell Counter can quickly count and present the total number of cells in a sample that has not been treated with trypan blue. The number of live cells can be estimated when the proportion of live/dead cells in the sample is known. Trypan blue concentration correction: The Auto Exposure Mode automatically corrects for variations in trypan blue concentration for stable count results.

	Clear Cell Images with Liquid Lens Autofocusing The Cell Counter model R1 automatically focuses on cells using liquid lens technology, which works similar to how human eyes focus. The lens can autofocus in the Z-axis at the right position, producing more accurate and reproducible cell counting results.

User-Friendly Cell Counter Design

Portable with a Small Footprint

The handle on top of the counter makes it easy to transport, while its small footprint enables it to fit in tight spaces in your lab. A storage space in the back of the counter hides the AC adaptor and extension cord.

Convenient Touch Screen

The large touch screen at the base of the cell counter offers stability while making it simple to count cells, view data, and print the results.

Easy-to-Load Slides

It’s easy to add cells to the cell counter’s disposable slides through the loading slits. Two sets of cell counting are performed on one slide, making it easy to replicate runs.
