MATCH WITH REFERENCE TRYPAN BLUE METHOD
THE SIMPLEST AUTOMATIC BENCHTOP CELL COUNTER FOR HIGH THROUGHPUT PARALLEL CULTURE MONITORING
The NORMA HT, based on the new lens-less technology, is a fully automatic cell counter for high throughput cell culture monitoring up to 48 samples in parallel. It rapidly measures cell concentration and viability without repeatability compromise. The NORMA HT provides an unmatched accuracy and precision thanks to its wide field of view (29.4 mm2) that allows counting several thousand of cells within a single sample image! No need to adjust focus, brightness or any other parameters, our algorithm will reconstruct cells wherever cells are located… from a few micrometres to some millimetres! There is no sample preparation: no dilution and no Trypan Blue! The NORMA HT is ready for receiving the sample from the robotic arms of a parallel micro bioreactor, an automatic sampler or even pipette.

HOW TO USE IT ?
The NORMA HT is easy to use!
- Take your unprepared sample. (LABEL FREE, UNDILUTED)
- Load the sample into the slide chamber.
- Insert the slide into the NORMA HT and press measure.
That’s it!
WHAT ARE THE RESULTS ?
The technology directly acquires the light diffraction properties of each individual cells through their hologram images without any objectives, lens of focus settings. Living and dead cells have significant holographic patterns that can be distinguished and accurately counted. The measurements are analysed by the HORUS software. All measures result is processed by our HORUS software.
HORUS returns the number of cells counted, the viability and the cell size. Each parameter is visible on a simple graphic with the possibility to follow several running cultures on user friendly charts. The acquisition time is only a few seconds per sample!
THE INTEGRATION OF THE NORMA HT INTO THE TECAN AND BIOMEK AUTOMATIC HANDLING SAMPLER
The NORMA HT is perfectly integrated into the TECAN and the Biomek automatic handling sampler!

F.A.Q.
The NORMA range allows you to count your cells and determine their viability and diameter. You will get automatically saved images.
No, only your raw sample is needed in order to do the cell count and viability analysis.
Yes, all our products are driven directly by our HORUS software. The data is also analysed by it.
Yes, all our products are 21 CFR.
By default, the image format is JPEG. It is possible to have images in PNG, BITMAP, TIFF. The results can be exported in CSV, XML, XLSX format.
