Materials Products & Reviews

NucleoCounter® instruments provide platforms for determination of viability and cell count as well as advanced image analysis of yeast, veterinary semen, insect cells and mammalian cells, both primary cells and cell cultures, including cells in aggregate or microcarrier cultures.

The XcytoMatic® 40 (XM40™) is a high-throughput cell density and viability analyzer that can run 24 samples in under 14 minutes. The variation between cell counts for these samples is under 3%. If scale-out and scale-up is a concern, you can trust each XM40™ instrument in your production to deliver the same quality results.

The NucleoCounter® NC-3000™ is an advanced image cytometer utilizing fluorescence imaging to characterize cell properties. The NC-3000™ can perform high-speed cell count and viability analyses and it includes plug-and-play analytical assays of mammalian, yeast and insect cells. Pre-defined assays include a unique 5-minute cell cycle assay, a selection of apoptosis assays and a GFP transfection efficiency assay.

The Specac Mini-Pellet Press is an entry-level laboratory hydraulic press for the preparation of high-quality 7mm KBr pellets for transmission FTIR analysis.
