EasyCount System fluorescent microscopy-based imaging system accurately counts dead and live nucleated cells and automatically calculates cell viability in a single test. Together with the ViaSure Kit, the system automates this routine function, eliminating the variability associated with the manual method. The researcher can perform up to six tests at a time using the Slide⁶ Multi-Well Slide provided with the EasyCount ViaSure Kit, and the instrument reports total and live cell counts and viability calculation in less than one minute per test.
