In biomedical research, determining the rate of change and viability of cell tissue is critical to monitoring the bioprocess. Cell growth monitoring using live cell time-lapse imaging simplifies the task.

NanoEnTek enables researchers to perform cell confluence analysis, produce real-time cell growth curves, total cell counting, and determine cell viability all within their incubator without user intervention. “For years, Sartorius has pioneered the development of assay technologies and cell-based assays, and hence appreciates the issues researchers come across when attempting to control the variables affecting cell-based assays.

The experience gained by the company has led to the development of the IncuCyte, which can be employed to improve the probability, quality, and reproducibility of cell-based assays.

IncuCyte allows cell growth to be tracked and quantified over time, and reveals time-dependent and transient phenomena. It is an essential cell culture quality control tool as it provides an objective, quantitative, kinetic, non-invasive analytical method on living cells in their native environment.

Cell-based assay quality and consistency can be improved by employing IncuCyte to document and monitor routine cell culture” (NIH).
