Optimized PCR-based Detection of Mycoplasma
Mycoplasma contamination of cell cultures is a serious issue impacting cell model validity. PCR testing for mycoplasma is an inexpensive, sensitive, and specific method for detecting contamination.
Counting Yeast Cells for Brewing and Wine Industries Using the Scepter™ 2.0 Handheld Automated Cell Counter
Combine the ease of automated instrumentation with the accuracy of impedance-based cell counting using the Coulter principle in an affordable, handheld format.
In Vitro Permeability Assays
Caco-2 permeability assay evaluates compound permeability across the intestinal barrier, supporting pharmaceutical, chemical, and consumer product formulations.
Kidney Transporter Assays
The kidney transporter assays provide a means to assess whether a test compound is a potential substrate or inhibitor of specific drug transporters within the kidney. We provide kidney transporter assays for small molecule formulations such as pharmaceuticals, industrial chemicals
How to use Scepter™ 2.0 Cell Counter
The Scepter™ cell counter uses the Coulter principle of impedance-based particle detection to reliably and accurately count every cell in your sample.
