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

BeadBug™ 6 Homogenizer

The BeadBug™ is a high energy benchtop homogenizer that sets the performance standard for personal sized cell disruption and lysis instruments.

Simultaneous homogenization of up to 6 samples takes place (often within 45 seconds) inside the disposable 2 mL screw cap microtubes. The optimized mixing motion causes rapid cell disruption through constant high velocity impact from the hardened micro-beads chosen specifically
for your sample type.

Developed for samples too tough to be homogenized in a common lab vortexer, the BeadBug™ provides a convenient and economical alternative to the traditional, over-priced homogenizers on the market today. With up to six tube capacity and a footprint of just 9 x 14 in., the BeadBug™ is
the ideal homogenizing instrument for low to medium throughput laboratories.

Z216-MK High-Speed Refrigerated Microcentrifuge

• 9 rotor options with capacity of up to 44 x 1.5/2.0 mL
• High speed, 15,000 rpm/21,631 x g
• Powerful refrigeration, room temp. to 4°C in <10 min
• Accepts tubes from 0.2 mL to 5 mL
• 5 Year Warranty

Compact, quiet, and powerful are just a few of the features found on the Z216 series microcentrifuges. Add to this, the versatility of eight available rotor options, and the result is the ideal microcentrifuge for the modern molecular biology laboratory.

All common microtubes (0.2 mL, 0.5 mL, 1.5 mL, 2.0 mL) can be accepted as well as PCR strips, hematocrit tubes, and even 5.0 mL centrifuge tubes. Advanced microprocessor controls allow for setting/displaying of the rotational speed in either rpm or rcf. In addition to retrieving saved programs, the easy-to-use front panel can adjust accel/decel rates and change the end-of-run alarm tone. Despite a remarkably small footprint, the Z216 series offers a uniquely designed 44 x 1.5 mL dual-row rotor, nearly doubling the capacity when compared to traditional microcentrifuges.

In the Z216-MK model a powerful, compressor-driven cooling system maintains temperatures as low as -20°C and is designed to reach 4°C (from room temperature) in less than 10 minutes.

• Precision Control of Aspiration Needle Position
• Accurate to 0.1 mm
• Minimal residual liquid
• Auto rinse function eliminates cross contamination
• Up to 100 wash protocols can be customized and stored
• Liquid level sensors in wash and waste bottles
• Wash protocols can be transferred via flash drive

The SmartWasher™ 96 provides flexibility by accepting full plates, partial plates, and strips with U, V, C, or flat bottoms. Multiple aspiration point settings allow for minimal residual liquid in the wells after aspiration. All parameters, including dis­pense volume, suction time, soak and shake cycles, and shaking speed are easily programmed using the large 4.3" LCD display and keypad. Up to 100 wash protocols can be stored on board the SmartWasher™ 96 and recalled when needed or transferred between machines with a flash drive.

The washer comes with 2 wash bottles, 1 rinse bottle and a waste bottle. All have sensors that alert the user when the solutions are low, or in the case of the waste bottle, when it needs to be emptied. An auto-rinse function primes the dispensing tube and wash heads to prevent cross contamination and clogs.

8- and 12-channel wash heads are available separately to accommodate plates in either orientation. A transparent, acrylic shield surrounds the wash area, allowing for visualization of the plate. Should a spill or leak occur, the beveled spill well ensures that the liquid is extracted immediately to avoid cross-contamination.

The SmartWasher™ 96 is the perfect partner for the SmartReader™ 96 Microplate Absorbance Reader as well as other popular readers.
