When it comes to cell counting precision, we’re proud to be extreme. The XcytoMatic® 40 (XM40™) is a high-throughput cell density and viability analyzer that can run 24 samples in under 14 minutes. The variation between cell counts for these samples is under 3%. If scale-out and scale-up is a concern, you can trust each XM40™ instrument in your production to deliver the same quality results. The instrument-to-instrument variation for this model lies under 5%, supporting easy tech transfer.
We designed the XM40™ to support cGMP manufacturing of biologics, vaccines, and advanced therapies. How? By minimizing the required sample volume to just 50 µl, increasing the dynamic cell counting range to 100 million cells per milliliter, and allowing for 100 samples to be analyzed per hour.
New to this line of instruments, we added a brightfield channel—without trypan blue. Combined with fluorescence microscopy, the AI-powered XM-View™ software accurately tracks cellular debris buildup in your culture. It additionally measures cell diameter, providing added information about cell health.
This instrument reduces the use of consumables, with long-lasting rinsing and staining solutions—all handled automatically by the instrument. All you need to do is plug-and-play. Let the XM40™ take care of the rest.
Say goodbye to downtime and dilutions.
Say hello to the XM40™.
