counted Protocols

Category: Cell Culture Protocols

Protocol describes a method for estimation of mammalian cell number in a defined volume of medium using a hemocytometer. Automated methods using cell-counting devices such as those produced by Coulter are desirable when large numbers of individual samples are to be counted. - [Read Estimation of Cell Number by Hemocytometry Counting Protocol]

Leukostat Staining of Cytospin Preparations to Detect Apoptosis. Shailaja Kasibhatla et al. Leukostat staining is used to visualize nuclear changes and apoptotic body formation that are characteristic of apoptosis. Cells are viewed under a light microscope and counted to quantify apoptosis. This protocol can be used both for cells that grow in suspension and for adherent cells. - [Read Leukostat Staining of Cytospin Preparations to Detect Apoptosis]
