Corning® Cell Counter | Automated Cell Counter | Corning

The world’s fastest and most accurate cell counter

The choice between manual and automated cell counting has long been a difficult one. Manual cell counting is accurate but often time-consuming and subject to user error. Automated cell counting is faster and less user-dependent, but disposable slide consumables can be expensive. Finally, there is a solution.

The new Corning® Cell Counter is the first automated cell counter that combines the best of both worlds. It is:

  • Fast – due to cloud-based image processing
  • Accurate – due to its machine learning algorithm
  • Low-cost – no consumables required

Other Advantages

Easy to use – The Cell Counter is easy to use. Simply connect the Cell Counter to your computer or tablet and start the CytoSMART Cloud App. Place the loaded counting chamber on the stage. Focus on your cells and press the Count button. The simplicity of the Cell Counter allows anyone working in your lab to easily count cells without the need of extensive training.

Convenient data retrieval – The cell count report is instantly shown on your computer. It is also sent to a secure cloud server, enabling you to access the analyzed image and cell count on a smartphone, tablet, or computer.

Requirements to use Corning Cell Counter:

  • Windows 10 Tablet or PC
  • High speed internet/cloud access
  • USB 3.0 Port
  • Mammalian cells 4 to 70 μm

Three-second cell counts

The Corning Cell Counter uses cloud-based image processing to perform a cell count in less than three seconds*, allowing it to analyze images faster than any existing automated cell-counting system.

Higher accuracy

The Corning Cell Counter uses a state-of-the-art image analysis software to ensure optimal accuracy. Trypan blue can be added (Figure 1) to detect cell viability. The Corning Cell Counter can also detect clusters of cells, which leads to accurate cell counts for high-concentration samples (up to 1 x 107 cells/mL; Figure 2).

Lower cost

The Corning Cell Counter uses a reusable glass counting chamber, enabling automated cell counting without the cost of disposable slides.
