Cell counting
The 1st gen Vi-CELL hadn't been updated in 10 years. It was a relatively basic cell counting instrument. This new instrument has much higher precision with faster processes. It also can count higher density (>10E6 cells/mL) without dilution and has 4 different concentration beads.

Integration of the Vi-CELL BLU Cell Viability Analyzer into the Sartorius Ambr 250 High Throughput
A Vi-CELL BLU cell viability analyzer integrated into a Sartorius Ambr® 250 High Throughput system leverages the strengths of both instruments and provides users with the advantages of automated cell culture handling and analysis. The combination of these technologies provides researchers and bioprocess engineers with many benefits, such as continuous monitoring and enhanced data analysis, while saving valuable time and resources. Automated cell culture analysis helps optimize workflows and could improve scalability. Explore the data from cultivations performed in a Sartorius Ambr® 250 High Throughput system which were sampled daily on an integrated Vi-CELL BLU analyzer to determine cell concentration and viability online. These results are compared with offline values.
