The presence of debris, non-nucleated cells and highly variable cell numbers can make counting primary cells challenging. Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) are a common primary cell source where accurate enumeration is essential. This technical note outlines the best practices for counting PBMCs using the CellDrop Automated Cell Counter.
DeNovix offers a range of brightfield and fluorescence beads as an alternative to biological samples for cell counter training and qualification purposes.
US Senator Chris Coons was welcomed to DeNovix Inc. to visit the expanded facilities and view the recently patented CellDrop™.
In this post, DeNovix explores primary cell counting using AO/PI with a focus on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).
Fluorometric sample quantification is a routine application in molecular biology labs however it is important to employ a number of best practices to ensure reliable results. This document outlines some of the key considerations.

Viability is a key metric in determining the activity of yeast cells in solution using fluorescent stains like FDA and PI with both cell counters.
Despite the variety of cell counters available, they can typically be divided into one of two sub-groups: manual and automated cell counters.
DeNovix SmartPath™ technology ensures that the measurement distance (pathlength) stays calibrated for the life of the instrument and enables micro-level pathlength control. This results in accurate, reproducible results without the need for routine recalibration.
The Trypan Blue app on CellDrop™ Series instruments enables rapid automated cell counting and viability of cell suspensions stained with Trypan Blue.
