HOW TO USE IT ?
The NORMA XS is very easy to use !

Take your unprepared sample.
(LABEL FREE, UNDILUTED)

Load the sample into the slide chamber.

Insert the slide into the NORMA XS and press measure.

WHAT ARE THE RESULTS ?
Then, the technology directly acquires the light diffraction properties of each individual cells through their hologram images without any settings. Several thousands of holograms are acquired into one single image that is immediately “reconstructed” with our HORUS holographic algorithm to obtain a microscopic like picture; at this stage cells can be segmented. Living and dead cells have significant holographic patterns that can be distinguished and accurately count.
The measurement results are returned by the HORUS software. Each parameter is visible on a simple graphical interface with the possibility to follow several running cultures on user friendly charts.
A STRONG CORRELATION WITH THE TRADITIONAL TRYPAN BLUE METHODS
Comparatives studies between the NORMA XS and other traditional counters have been performed and have shown their strong correlation and the High Repeatability of the NORMA XS!

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.
