Why Are You Using Trypan Blue to Determine Viability Post-Thaw?
After the freeze-thaw cycle, when viability drops, trypan blue's cytotoxic effect can further damage cells when incubation is required, thus skewing the sample's viability.
Live Webinar: Interested in Improving Cell Counting Method Development for CAR-T Cell Therapy?
Webinar: The crucial need for accurate and consistent cell counting methods for development and manufacturing of CAR-T under GMP/GLP conditions.
How Long Does it Take to Set Up a Cellometer Spectrum Image Cytometer?
The Cellometer Spectrum Image Cytometer performs cell-based assays in minutes. The system has user-changeable fluorescent optics modules and provides flow results without flow cytometry.
Addressing Primary Cell Counting Concerns
Everyone I meet that performs primary cell counting wants to optimize the amount of time they spend doing that task. They also agree that 30 seconds per count sounds pretty good.
Evaluating Anticancer Drug Compounds using Image Cytometry
Image-based, automated analysis of 3-D tumor spheroids in microwell plates is becoming standard practice for the evaluation of anticancer drug compounds.
Automated Cell Counters: Accurate, Reproducible Cell Counts for the Entire Cell Therapy Workflow
Cellometer automated cell counters have been facilitating CAR T manufacturing with accurate cell counting and analysis since 2010.
Celigo Provides Image-Based Proof of Single-Cell Clonality
The FDA identifies clonality as one of the most crucial steps in guaranteeing cell line quality and safety. The Celigo Image Cytometer makes single cell sorting easy.
An Automated Cell Counting Superhero – All in the Palm of Your Hand
Tired of manual cell counting? Let's face it, manual cell counting is tedious. When your day is filled with culturing many cell lines at one time, that's hours of your day just to get the data you need. Not only that, the manual process can be riddled with judgment errors, miscounts, and user-to-user variability. I know what you’re thinking, "You're telling me my hours hunched over a microscope counting cells may not even be producing reliable data?!" Yup. You need a superhero. "So what are my options?" Well, what if there were a powerful superhero that could take a small [...]
Cellometer on Tap – Yeast Cell Counting for Breweries
How many brewers does it take to count yeast? This sounds like the beginning of a bad joke. In truth, cell counting is really simple but labor intensive & extremely time-consuming. With a Nexcelom Cellometer X2 – it only takes one click & 30 seconds per sample! Cellometer has earned a reputation as the “go to” cell counter for breweries seeking accurate yeast counts, viability & vitality. Just look at the map comparing the distribution of Nexcelom’s Cellometer automated yeast counters and the Top 50 breweries in the US. Data based on beer sales volume adapted from Brewery Association (BA) [...]
Counting Brettanomyces is Complicated
If you use Brettanomyces in your brewery, you know that counting brett cells is complicated. Leo Chan joins MBAA to discuss the development of a method to automate cell counting of Brettanomyces. Check out the podcast here: https://goo.gl/pGT3vs
