Cell counting

Cell counting is made easy.

Even though you can't wait to get your hands on actual results, the step of quality control of the cells in culture is inevitable. But the thought of these laborious counting steps makes you look for easy solutions.

Our approach to cell counting

Analyzing your cell count and viability manually can be tedious and inconsistent. When you continue your experiments after culturing the cells and subjecting them to various conditions, you must know what you are working with. Are your cells viable? How many cells in the culture died? How many cells do you have to continue working with? A simple and inexpensive device can make your life much easier and give you the consistent counts you wish for. So that is what we did. We scavenged the world to find compatible, affordable, and reliable cell counter equipment and reagents.

Regarding objectivity, reproducibility, and accuracy, machines equipped for the task perform the proper quality control to move your research or product development to the next phase. And, on top of that, help reallocate your time to concentrate on relevant work.

Let's be honest: unreliable and biased counts frustrate downstream applications. It is crucial to measure cells accurately to fulfill your functionality studies like cell imaging, CRISPR/Cas genome editing, protein production, cell morphology studies, drug testing, and other studies. We have just the right solutions for you.
