| With its Scepter cell counter, Millipore has captured the ease of automated instrumentation and accuracy of Coulter counting in an affordable, handheld format. The system employs the Coulter principle of impedance-based particle detection3 in a miniaturized format enabling rapid cell counts. The instrumentation has been collapsed into a device the size of a pipette and uses a combination of analog and digital hardware for sensing, signal processing, data storage, and graphical display. The disposable tip is engineered with a microfabricated, cell-sensing zone that enables discrimination by cell size and cell volume at sub-micron and sub-picoliter resolution. Enhanced with precision liquid-handling channels and electronics, the Scepter cell counter provides cell population statistics graphically displayed as a histogram.
