INCYTO -Model DHC-N01 -C-Chip Disposable Hemocytometer
The C-Chip disposable hemocytometer is used for manual cell counting. In research settings, it helps to determine cell concentration prior to cell passage, or to assess cell viability following drug treatment; cell counting solution is essential. Obtaining accurate cell counts can be critical when seeding cells for propagation and experimentation.
Accuracy of manual counts with a hemocytometer depends on:
- Accurate mixing of the sample (no bubbles)
- Number of cells counted (practical: 200-500 per 0.1 mm3)
In a conventional glass hemocytometer, improper fitting of the chamber and coverslip changes the volume of the sample introduced into the chamber. C-Chip’s chamber with integrated coverslip solves the problem. It is a good standard practice to use a disposable hemocytometer for clinical labs and laboratories dealing with infectious materials. It is safer.
DHC-N01, C-Chip disposable hemacytometer, has two precision engineered individual counting chambers (100 mm depth) with integrated cover slip. The chamber has ports for sample loading. Neubauer Improved (NI) grid pattern is embedded in each chamber. Each grid pattern has nine large squares each measuring 1 x 1 mm and a total counting area of 3 x 3 mm.
