The faster Vi-CELL BLU cell analyzer automates the Trypan Blue Dye Exclusion method for cell viability analysis. The Vi-CELL BLU expedites processing by now having the option to use a 24-position sample carousel or a 96 well plate for sample delivery.

Additional enhancements incorporated in the Vi-CELL BLU include

• Fully automated sample preparation, analysis, and post-run cleaning
• Small sample size
• Fast sample processing time
• Log-in samples on the fly
• Single sign-on with Active Directory
• Small laboratory footprint
• Flexible sample introduction – carousel or 96 well plate
• User-friendly reagent system
• Cell viability reported in percentage, concentration, and cell count
• Large sample capacity
• Data integrity tools for 21 CFR Part 11 compliance
