The traditional trypan blue can be used with the LUNA-FL™, as well as the safer Erythrosin B. Both dyes produce consistently accurate cell count and viability data with the LUNA-FL™.

Upon insertion of a counting slide, the TC20 cell counter rapidly provides a total cell count (with or without trypan blue staining) and assesses cell viability via trypan blue exclusion.

The TC20 can count single and mixed cell populations and determine viability via Trypan blue exclusion assay. A Beckman DU 800 Series UV/VIS spectrophotometer equipped with a kinetics package. If you ...

Cells were cultured for 72 h in the absence or presence of drugs and counted on a Vi-Cell Cell Viability Analyzer (Beckman Coulter, Krefeld, Germany) with Trypan Blue exclusion of dead cells.
