Description
The Scepter 2.0 handheld automated cell counter provides a fast and convenient method for counting cells and delivering histrogram profiles of cellular populations. The system employs the Coulter principle in a miniaturized, handheld, format enabling rapid cell counting; what used to take 10 minutes now takes less than 30 seconds. The user prepares a dilution of the cell culture of interest and uses the Scepter cell counter to aspirate a sample of this dilution into the Scepter sensor.
The Scepter cell counter’s screen displays:
• Cell concentration
• Average cell size
• Average cell volume
• Histogram of size or volume distribution
