We currently are working with cell cultures, and cell counting is a crucial thing for us in terms of quantifying cells needed for seeding, treatment, etc. Countess eliminates the hassle and unreliability of doing manual counting with hemocytometer.

Summary

The Good

Really fast and painless way to count cells. Additional value with live/dead cell quantification.
