Compound Microscopes

 

High-intensity LED illumination offers 25,000+ hours of life and a viewing environment with comfortable and unfirm illumination. Constant color temperature reduces the need to change illumination intensity when changing objective magnifications.

 

Infinity Optics produces the best color reproduction and image quality in the industry. Crisp, in focus from edge-to-edge images and longer working distances foster the ability to focus deeper into samples and achieve detailed resolution normally reserved for larger microscopes.

 

Expandability is a key feature of many of these scopes. Optional features like Phase, Polarized light, and even Epi-Fluorescence can be added to the scopes, enhancing your capabilities and protecting your long-term team budget.

Accuris QuadCount™ Automated Cell Counter

The Accuris QuadCount™ improves on the simple technique of brightfield microscopy by utilizing an LED light source, precision optics and a high resolution CMOS detector.  A finely tuned, motorized XYZ positioning stage provides for extra fine focusing and ability to capture multiple images. 

With count speeds at fast as 20 seconds per sample, the Accuris QuadCount provides many advantages over the tedious and time consuming manual hemocytometry method.  The advanced software eliminates human bias in dead/live determinations, reduces counting errors, saves time, and improves efficiency. 

The QuadCount utilizes a unique 4-chambered disposable QuadSlide™.  Four samples can be processed in one slide (twice the capacity of standard 2-chambered slides), decreasing consumable costs.  Each chamber has a hydrophilic inner surface with an engraved grid pattern.  High precision production and molding ensure that each QuadSlide meets the rigorous standards and dimensional tolerances required for optimal counting performance. 

3 Count Modes Available to analyze different sample volumes. 
  • Quick Mode: 0.15uL / 20 seconds (1 image frame) 
  • Normal Mode: 0.9 uL / 30 seconds (6 image frames) 
  • Precise Mode: 3.6 uL/ 100 seconds  (24 image frames) 
The QuadCount’s ability to analyze larger sample volumes/multiple images provides significantly better accuracy. 

Advanced Optics and Imaging Technology 
The Accuris QuadCount incorporates the highest quality optical and electronic components, such as a 4X objective lens and 5MP CMOS detector, to ensure reliable performance and consistent results. 
The precision motorized stage adjusts the position of the lens and sensor assembly in micron increments for automatic focus.  Multiple image frames (up to 24) can be captured to increase the volume of sample counted, providing a higher level of accuracy. 

Autofocus 
Correct focus is crucial for accurate counts of viable cells.  The QuadCount’s proprietary autofocus system and image analysis software work in conjunction with the motorized stage to analyze and capture images in the proper focal plane. 

Advanced Algorithms 
Advanced detection algorithms easily manage irregularly shaped and aggregated cells.  Often misinterpreted by visual counting, correct analysis of these cells is performed by QuadCount’s software, resulting in more accurate counts.  User to user variation is eliminated. 

Intuitive User Interface 
After images are captures, the cell count parameters are easily adjusted. 
  • Gating size range
  •  Aggregation level
  •  Live/dead definition

Cell population statistics are viewed as a histogram and cell size gating can be adjusted.  Choose to view the histogram data for individual or multiple chambers in each QuadSlide.

Corning® Cell Counter

Time-saving Technology Using the Power of the Cloud 

For years, the choice between manual and automated cell counting has been a difficult one. Manual cell counting can be accurate, but time-consuming and user-dependent. Automated cell counting is much faster and less user-dependent, but the cost of disposable counting slides can be an issue. A tough choice, but now there is an affordable solution.

 

The Corning® Cell Counter is the first automated cell counter that combines the best of both worlds.
It is: 

·       Evolving – periodic, seamless upgrades, added features, and improved functionality.

·       Accurate – thanks to its cloud-based machine learning algorithm.

·       Improved resolution – ability to accurately count as small as 4 µm (e.g., PBMC).

·       Low-cost – works with common reusable glass hemocytometers. No consumables required.

·       Fast – thanks to its online image processing.

 

Other Advantages

 

Easy to use – The Cell Counter is easy to use. Simply connect the Cell Counter to your computer or tablet and start the CytoSMART Cloud App. Place the loaded counting chamber on the stage. Focus on your cells and press the Count button. The simplicity of the Cell Counter allows anyone working in your lab to easily count cells without the need of extensive training.

 

Accessible Data Anywhere, Anytime – With the Corning® Cell Counter summary reports are instantly generated with every count; exportable on your computer and automatically saved to the CytoSMART Cloud, enabling you to access the analyzed images and cell counts remotely on your smartphone, tablet, or computer without running out of storage space. Since all data is saved in the CytoSMART Cloud, you can gain insight into the health and quality of your cell culture from one experiment to the next by batch exporting all the counts in your specific research experiment.

 

Requirements to use Corning® Cell Counter:

 

·       Windows 10 Tablet or PC

·       High-speed internet/cloud access

·       USB 3.0 Port

·       Mammalian cells 4 to 70 μm

Positive Charged Microscope Slides

 

These microscope slides have a positive charge that makes the surface ideal for cell, tissue, and general sample adhesion. Typical samples have a negative charge and are therefore attracted to the positively charged slide surface, significantly reducing “float”.

Slides are made of high-clarity glass and have dimensions of 25×75 mm at 1.1mm thick (compatible with most printers). Frosted marking surface on one end. Packed 72 pieces per plastic box.

Slides are packaged in a Class 10 cleanroom for ultra-clean, dust-free performance.

 

  • Positive charged for cell adhesion
  • Ultra-clean / dust-free
  • Frosted on one end
  • Choose 90° or 45° cut corners
  • Slide Dispenser fits 72 slides
