METHOD

EASYCOUNTER YC Yeast cell counter is based on fluorescent image cytometry for counting cells. The instrument counts individual yeast cells in suspension by detecting the fluorescence signals of stained DNA in the cell nuclei. It performs viability and vitality analysis. Viability is defined as a percentage of live cells in a whole population. In many cases, toxic effects of chemical or physical factors do not lead directly to cell death but may compromise cell ability to divide without necessarily leading to cell death. The analysis for assessing cell viability provides information only on alive and dead cells in the whole population, but do not provide information about the number of vitality cells. Vitality is defined as the physiological capabilities of cells. It is important to note that cell viability and cell vitality represent two different aspects of cell functions, and both are required for the estimation of the physiological state of a cell after exposure to various types of stressors and chemical or physical factors.

Coefficient of variation (CV, %)

EASYCOUNTER YC possesses the largest volume of scanned sample up to 8 µl that guarantee low coefficient of variation, better than the direct microscopic counting.

Verification as microscope

There is no need of calibration, only a graduated scale on a CELLCHIP is used for verification of the magnification as per requirements of ISO 20391-1:2018 Biotechnology -- Cell counting -- Part 1: General guidance on cell counting methods


Counting area

The counting area of the EASYCOUNTER YC has:
43 times larger area than a standard hemocytometer and
12 times larger area than similar instruments.
