NucleoCounter® NC-202™ automated cell counter
The NucleoCounter® NC-202™ automated cell counter is our 3rd generation cassette-based image cytometer. Featuring improved hardware and new NC-View™ software, we take precision, speed and data management to new levels.
Essential to daily operations
Bioprocess development - Microcarriers & Single cell suspensions
My team uses this instrument on a daily basis. We predominantly do upstream bio-process development for our own products as well as customer projects on viral vaccines, AAV, MSCS and iPSCs. Spinner flasks and stirred tank bioreactors provide a significant challenges in establishing a process, with a cornerstone in the cell biology and cell counting. The NC202 reduces the subjectivity experienced with other bench-top cell counting methods and instruments. After initial cell-specific protocol development, internal and external technology transfer has one less barrier. Every biotech and biopharma we work with, uses a NucleoCounter. Ease of use and training on this technology is another bonus. Biotechnology should take a lesson from the justice system: "Eye-witness testimony is the most flawed, but catching the events on a CCTV..." The above strongly offsets the cost and waste generation from the cartridges if there are high sample numbers to analyze.

Very good counting device, don't want to use another one anymore.
Cell counting human PBMCs and cell lines
Easy to use and fast. Highly reproducible results. Gives many parameters of counting results e.g. Total cell counts, viable cells, dead cells, vitality of cultured cells which are very helpful for documentation.

Great system, we use it daily and recommend to all of our clients
Cell therapy
The NC202 has simplified our cell count and viability processing, enabling smooth comparison between process development and GMP. The Chemometec team have been very supportive throughout our development and transition between the NC200, 250 and 202.

Insect cells counting
Counting Insect cells cultivation
We used the cell counter for insect cell cultures growing in flasks. The counting method works well for this cell type. We obtained consistent and reproducible results even with high cell densities and some cell clusters. The use of cartridges enables safe analyses for the operators.

The NucleoCounter® NC-202™ automated cell counter is our 3rd generation cassette-based image cytometer. Featuring improved hardware and new NC-View™ software, we take precision, speed and data management to new levels. The NucleoCounter® NC-202™ is the most precise automated cell counter on the market: The combined inter-operator/inter-instrument variation is typically 5 – 10%. Consequently, you obtain identical results with any cell sample, recorded by any user, located anywhere in the world.
The NucleoCounter® NC-202™ has one universal cell counting protocol that handles all cell types: No optimization is required. The instrument provides robustness and precision regardless of cell size, morphology and media type, even in the presence of red blood cells, magnetic beads or cellular debris. Consequently, the NucleoCounter® NC-202™ is easy to validate, even for the most complex processes.
The all new DebrisIndex™ is a measurement of culture debris build-up. Debris negatively affects downstream filtering and purification steps, so a direct measurement of debris facilitates better process development parameters. The NC-View™ software is compatible with 21 CFR Part 11/GMP guidelines and can be integrated into your clinical workflow.
Our Field Application Scientists (FASs) provide training, service visits, installation and user guidance on-site or online to ensure you get the best start to working with the NucleoCounter® NC-202™.
What’s NEW – NucleoCounter® NC-202™:
- Automated cell counter
- Analysis time only 30 seconds
- Improved light sources for greater signal-to-noise ratio and dynamic range
- DebrisIndex™ monitors cell culture health and bioreactor production runs
- Broader linearity range: Count samples up to 1×107 cells/ml
- Instrument Service Plan: Keep your instrument up-to-date
- Automatic data quality checks for sample artefacts
