NC200, very good device and service support
Cell viability and count
We use the NC200 device for the viability and cell count because it's a device with a very good correlation with microscopy for primary cells (like CD34+ cells, T lymphocytes) but also for cell lines. At this moment, we work with new cells which have some big aggregates and we have discussed with French Chemometec people who have provided some possibilities to improve our results of viability and cell count.

Highly recommended
Cell therapy
We use the NucleCounter NC-200 on a regular basis for counting various cell types (adherant or suspension cells lines, primary cells) both for R&D and bioproduction activities. This counter is easy to use and offers a very good reproducibility and reliability.
Review Date: 10 Apr 2024 | ChemoMetec
Easy to use.
Count PBMCs isolated from blood samples
The product was easy to use. The Via1 cassettes used to insert the samples in for measurement already contained the dye, making it easy to order and use.

Reliable, more so than other devices
Cell Culture
Our lab used the NC-200 for quite some time before trying out some other counters. We immediately switched back to the NC-200, as the other ones did not give good results (strange readings, lower reproducibility, etc).

Reliability and reproducibility of the measurement with NC200
HEK293 cells counting
We regularly use the NC200 for counting HEK293 and CHO cells. It's simple and fast to use with cassettes and Chemometec software. The results are reliable and reproducible (measurement performed in triplicate) for monitoring cell growth during cultures in flasks and bioreactors.
Review Date: 14 Dec 2023 | ChemoMetec
Great repeatability.
Count for cell growth
Reliable and easy to operate.
Review Date: 7 Dec 2023 | ChemoMetec
Complete, simple, fast counting - you can't do without it.
Count cells before use.
Fast, reproducible counting. No counting bias between manipulators. Counting cassettes are extremely easy to use.
Review Date: 22 Nov 2023 | ChemoMetec
Essential equipment, daily use
Cell count after tissue dissociation (rodent brain, human placenta)
Very easy to use, makes lab life more simple and the experiments faster. Also good service of the company in case of questions or technical problems.
Review Date: 22 Nov 2023 | ChemoMetec
Must have for Manufacturing and QC labs
Cell therapy
Easy to use, least time-consuming run, requires daily calibration for GMP use for generating accurate results for drug dosing.
Review Date: 26 Oct 2023 | ChemoMetec
Extremely helpful and reliable
Cell counting
The instrument is easy to use, very reliable and extremely helpful. This instrument helped make our research faster and more accurate, since we don't have to count our cells with a hematocytometer.

The NucleoCounter® NC-200™ is a high precision automated cell counter utilizing state-of-the-art image cytometry. With user-adaptable protocols and specialized assays for counting a wide range of mammalian cells, including adipose-derived stem cells, T cells, aggregated cells and cells on microcarriers, the NucleoCounter® NC-200™ provides an all-in-one solution for cell counting and cell viability determinations. Samples containing cells are loaded using the Via1-Cassette™ which includes an in-built pipette and immobilized fluorescent dyes to stain the total and dead cell populations. With the Via1-Cassette™, all errors introduced during pipetting and staining are avoided. Also the Via1-Cassette™ is volume calibrated ensuring a high precision in determining cell count and viability. Analyzing one sample takes less than 50 seconds. The NucleoCounter® NC-200™ is designed to be easily implemented in GMP and 21 CFR part 11 compliant laboratories. The in-built protocols for IQ/OQ/PQ ensure control of consistent operation. Standardized pdf-reports, user control and audit trails allow for documentation of all events. Together with the high reproducibility and consistency in measurements, the NucleoCounter® NC-200™ is the ideal choice for automated cell counting in GMP and 21 CFR part 11-compliant laboratories.
Our Field Application Scientists (FASs) provide training, service visits, installation and user guidance on-site or online to ensure you get the best start to working with the NucleoCounter® NC-200™.

The meticulous researcher’s guide to validating a cell counting method
Like any methodology used in the laboratory, it’s important to validate and demonstrate that the cell counting method of choice is precise. But finding the correct methodology for testing this can be challenging, depending on the process and the sample type. In this video by Chemometec, find out how to choose an effective cell counting method for your cell counting research.
Podcast: Solving the challenges of standardizing cell counting to ensure reproducibility in experiments, assays and manufacturing processes
In this podcast, Christian Berg, Global Product Manager at Chemometec talks about the importance of standardizing cell counting because while often overlooked, it is essential for reproducibility in experiments, assays, and manufacturing processes. Cell counting is a challenging technique, with many pitfalls, that can delay entire projects. This podcast discusses how new technologies are solving these challenges and enabling standardization of cell counting across organizations.
