ADAM MC
Auto Cell Counter
Accurate Counting of Mammalian Cells
As accurate as FACS counting
Are you looking for an automated cell counter with the highest accuracy? The ADAM MC is the solution that many labs have turned to when looking for highly repeatable results, such as with a flow cytometer, but at a fraction of the cost. Its technology is simple; combine a precision microscope with an integrated fluorescence detection optical system and onboard analysis software. With disposable chip-based kits that use propidium iodide to stain the nucleus of target cells, the ADAM never worries about cell size, shape or aggregation. Instead it uses fluorescense to specifically image the stained nuclei and averages 22 separate reads for each sample totaling a 3 ul read volume. These improvements specifically address variation attributable to low sample reads (some competitor models only perform one read), low sampling volumes (most models only read 1 ul or less), and inaccurate resolution of cells (often found when cells clump together). The results are amazing and it is common to have R2 values over 0.99 and CVs under 1%. The ADAM MC can work with a dizzying range of suspension cell types, as only nuclei are needed for detection. And it uses a very clever “detergent wash” technique to provide precise cell viability values. But don’t take our word for it, we invite you to request a demo and find out for yourself.

Even an undergrad can use it
Did we mention that the ADAM MC is designed to be incredibly easy to use. From its disposable chip set that minimizes risk of contamination, greatly simplifies work flow and eliminates the need for calibration and regular cleaning, to its on board analysis that obviates an external computer and allows quick operation. The ADAM MC is small enough to comfortably sit on any bench top–even an undergrad’s.
