Tolle Alternative zur manuellen Bestimmung der Zellzahl / Great alternative to manual cell count determination

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Determination of cell count of PBMCs, or murine splenocytes, synovial cells

Wir nutzen den CellDrop regelmäßig und sind insgesamt sehr zufrieden. Das Gerät zählt Zellen schnell und zuverlässig, und bietet viele Einstellungsmöglichkeiten für unterschiedliche Anwendungen. Anfangs war etwas Feinjustierung nötig, um das optimale Setup für unsere Zellen zu finden, aber mittlerweile funktioniert die Zählung sehr gut. Einziger Nachteil: Bei sehr hoher Zelldichte kommt es trotz „High Density“-Einstellung gelegentlich zu ungenauen Ergebnissen, und die Software hängt sich manchmal auf. Trotzdem ist der CellDrop für uns die beste Alternative zum manuellen Zählen unter dem Mikroskop – eine enorme Arbeitserleichterung im Laboralltag! / We use the CellDrop regularly and are very satisfied overall. The device counts cells quickly and reliably and offers many setting options for different applications. Initially, some fine-tuning was necessary to find the optimal setup for our cells, but now the counting works very well. The only drawback: At very high cell densities, inaccurate results occasionally occur, even with the "High Density" setting, and the software sometimes crashes. Nevertheless, the CellDrop is the best alternative to manual counting under the microscope for us – a huge relief in our daily lab work!

Ok instrument. Need to understand better how to get more accurate counts

 

Average Rating 4.0

Application Area:

Count Cells

Good when you need to have multiple reads and have relative counts. Less Good for accuracy and repetitive reads

So easy to use! I loved this system a lot.

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

General cell culture work

We demoed this system in our lab, and I absolutely fell in love with it. I've been using a hemocytometer to count cells, which could take hours depending on how many lines I had to use. This machine made it so much faster. It is also easy to clean between uses as well. And that's not even mentioning all the cool features like the fluorescence capabilities, ability to take a picture of what the cells look like and export it, and so much more. I am genuinely impressed by this system and will be bugging my PI to buy one.

Excellent product! Must have! Changed my cell culture work experience!

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Cell-culture

I have been using the DeNovix CellDrop for 3yrs now and it is amazing. I am a regular and heavy user and this CellDrop has changed my work experience in cell culture exceptionally. A lot if time is saved when compared to the heamocytometer counter and more uniformity and accuracy. I have been able to do larger experiments involving a large number of culture dishes or flasks for simultaneous processing. There is a lot of uniformity as well.
