NucleoCounter® NC-202™ automated cell counter by ChemoMetec

"We use the device to measure the parameters of insect cells (Sf9 line). The great advantage of the instrument is the speed of analysis, simple operation and operation that does not require regular replacement of reagents. The dyes are immobilized on the Via2-Cassette, which allows intuitive sample processing and minimizes errors. E.g. if air bubbles can be sucked in due to incorrect handling, a warning is displayed in the software. The software allows you to enter the sample name, dilution factor, operator name everything you need today. Data can be easily and intuitively browsed, exported eg to .pdf. The results of the last few measurements are displayed on the home screen. We do not use the DebrisIndex function very much, it serves us more as a measure of gentle treatment of cell culture. The manufacturer offers standard qualifications (IQ, OQ) for the device. For control measurements, it is possible to purchase a PQ set, which will allow checking the function of the device."

"This is a fantastic instrument. It performs cell counts quicker than any counter I've ever used! No sample prep required, just load a cartridge, load it in the system and hit go. With tricky aggregated samples, the lysis method beats any cell counter I've used before, I can't recommend the NC-202 more!"

"I have previously used other counters from ChemoMetec so it was very quick and easy for me to get used to the NC-202. After carrying out a linearity study we were able to show that we got more reliable, reproducible and accurate data compared to the other instrument we were assessing. We tend to work with small volumes and the NC-202 is able to work reliably and reproducibly within our ranges. The ease of use makes it more streamlined to carry out our experiments and we are able to save on both labour and time resources making it great value for money. The after sales care has been great, they have checked in to see if there is anything we needed. However, everything is working well so we have not needed anything but it is good to know that they are there should we need anything."

"Easy to use, data is easy to copy and move to excel. I believe the data, because in the pilot set up I counted manually and at the same time used the nucleocounter. The same values were achieved using each method. I prefer to use the nucleocounter because it is very easy and very friendly to use. All data is easy to move to excel for more calculating for the FLOW analysis. If the data wasn't credible, we wouldn't be able to believe our data from FLOW. But all data from FLOW answered our hypotheses and confirmed our experimental setup. The Nucleocounter from ChemoMetec ia our winner in our experimental set ups. Without the Nucleocounter we're lost and I would need to apend several hours counting cells manually. Spares my body and gives credible data, thank you so much!"

"It easy to use and to maintain. The company is great with after sale care, they handle any problems with the machine quickly and effectively."
