Millipore PHCC340500 Scepter 3.0 Cell Counter Sensor

Features:

• The Scepter 3.0 sensor is engineered with a micro-fabricated, cell-sensing zone that enables discrimination by cell size and cell volume - down to sub-micron and sub-picoliter resolution.
• Coupled with precision liquid handling channels and electronics, the Scepter sensor accurately and reliably provides cell population statistics
• Not compatible with Scepter 2.0 products

The Scepter 3.0 handheld automated cell counter provides a fast and convenient method for counting cells and particles and is compatible with both the 40 and 60uM sensor. 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 3.0 cell counter′s screen displays:

• Cell concentration
• Average cell size
• Average cell volume
• Histogram of size or volume distribution

This system is intended for research use only and has been tested with cell types representative of those in use today.
