General description
The Scepter 3.0 Handheld Automated Cell Counter delivers rapid cell counts in a handheld, easy to use format. Intended for research use only, Scepter 3.0 has been tested with cell types representative of those in use today. After preparing a dilution of the cell culture of interest, on-screen instructions guide the user through the sampling process. In less than 30 seconds after the Scepter Cell Counter aspirates a sample into the Scepter Cell Counter Sensor, the Scepter cell counter′s screen displays:
The Scepter 3.0 Cell Counter is compatible with both the 40uM and 60uM Scepter 3.0 Cell Counter Sensors. This kit (PHCC340KIT) includes a free 50-pack of 40uM sensors.
- Cell concentration
- Average cell size
- Average cell volume
- Histogram of size or volume distribution

Can it count nuclei, specifically isolated from human aortic endothelial cells?
1 answer-
While most mammalian nuclei are around 6 micrometers (um), which is at the low end of detection, this size range can also include other cell debris that is often gated out during analysis. Additionally, since the counts are displayed as a normal distribution, the full profile may not be visible at the low end of detection. Generally, it's not recommended to use this method for small nuclei, but the Scepter may work for some cells with larger nuclei.
