The Master Science Automated Cell Counter measures cell concentration, viability and diameter in brightfield and trypan blue modes. A 6-chamber counting slide lets it count six samples in a single run that takes about one minute, replacing slow manual counting with a haemocytometer.
It is a stand-alone unit with a 7-inch touch screen, autofocus and a 6.3-megapixel industrial CMOS camera, so no external computer is needed.
