Does not work for PBMC
Application Area: count cells (live and dead) in suspension
"Unfortunately the instrument and/or the software can not handle primary cells isolated from blood. This is our main application. However, as the cell sizes are too variable, the instrument is not able to quantify our isolated cells."

Easy to use, accurate. Reproducible results.
Application Area:Cell counting and viability
"Easy to use, the effectiveness is high enough. Results are reproducible. This instrument greatly increases the consistency of our experiments. It's 10x faster than manual counting, no need for washing or contamination, so it will be excellent for decreasing time consumption and increasing accuracy."

Replicate counts not very similar!
Application Area:Cell counting and viability
"Easy to use, but unless you are meticulous about how you collect and prep your samples, and load the counting slides, it's very hard to get multiple counts that are within 15% CVs! I've had to recount nearly all my samples on occasions, other times only a couple. Rarely, none need recounting."

We count thousand times per day, and we will be like w/o hands w/o this instrument.
Application Area:Count cells used for muscle differentiation
"The effectiveness is high enough. Results are reproducible that is important for experiments. I put 5 stars for ease to use - it is true: you fill out the counter chamber, make the focus and press count button. About sales care: we have had the Cellometer for 4 years w/o any repair. Value for money: extremely expensive."

This instrument has greatly increased the consistency of our experiments.
Application Area:Count human PBMCs
"This is best cell counter we have ever used. Within a minute, all the calculations and concentrations are available. The results are consistent and all of our experiments have been streamlined."

Application Area:Cell Viability
"This is a very easy-to-use, compact bench-top cellometer. It comes pre-loaded with a variety of counting assay based on the cell type you are working with. The use of AOPI combination Live/Dead staining increases the accuracy and reproducibility of live cell counts and is not dependent on optical focusing as in other similar devices, like the Countess. It is definitely worth the money."
