Cellometer cell counting slides

Cellometer cell counting slides are designed for use with Cellometer instruments. Each all-plastic, disposable slide contains two sample counting chambers with precisely controlled height. Image-based counting with disposable counting chambers offers several key advantages:

  • No potential clogging 
  • Ideal for fragile samples, such as hepatocytes 
  • No washing 
  • No potential cross-contamination
Cellometer slide

Each chamber has two ports. The cell sample is loaded following the recommended volume for the slide type (as shown in the table) into one port. The second port allows air to escape for easy loading.

Ports on a Cellometer slide

Cellometer PD100 slides

  • standard chamber thickness

Cellometer Ascend cell counting slides

Designed for use with the Cellometer™ Ascend cell counter, the slides have either 3 or 8 counting chambers and bring throughput-flexibility to the benchtop.

Advantages of Cellometer Ascend slides include:

  • Run up to 8 samples at once
  • Perform multiple replicates within a single slide
  • Disposable slides for infectious sample safety control
  • Reduced cross-contamination risk
  • Supports the use of fragile cell types such as hepatocytes
  • Wide dynamic range for cell concentrations
  • Low sample volume of 10 μl for the 8-chamber slide
  • Composed of shatter-resistant plastic materials
  • Integrated autofocus feature on the three-chamber slide
  • Three-chamber slide facilitates counting of low concentration samples

Cellaca™ PLX, low fluorescence slides

The Cellaca PLX slides are designed for assays that require extra sensitivity when performing fluorescent-based multiplexed assays. From immunophenotyping to fluorescent protein expression, the low-sample volume slides, 15 µL per sample, are perfect for sensitive assays. The slide holder, which is included with the instrument, can accommodate 4 slides or 8 samples per experimental run.
