Aber - Countstar
Countstar
Specification:
The instrument uses disposable slides containing 5 sample chambers that require just 20μl for each sample.
Using auto-focusing cell image analysis, one measurement takes less than 20 seconds with a 5 megapixel industrial colour camera to provide the cell count (total, live and dead), the %viability, cell diameter and the degree of aggregate.
Speed up counting and minimize inter‐operator errors with the aber countstar
Graph shows inter‐operator variability. It is clear that a much higher variation was seen when four users perform viability estimation for yeast samples using the haemocytometer.
The Aber Countstar can be used for rapid counting of yeast cells and viability estimation.
The Countstar is simple to operate and eliminates the time consuming, tedious and potentially error prone haemocytometer operation.
