– for counting of somatic cells in milk NucleoCounter® SCC-100™ The NucleoCounter® SCC-100™ offers unique ease of use and effective determination of the number of somatic cells in a milk sample. The compact instrument fits perfectly in any research, reference or central laboratory function. Any milk sample can instantly be turned into in-house reference material. The NucleoCounter® SCC-100™ is very simple to operate with only limited training in laboratory work. Principle: The NucleoCounter® is an integrated fluorescence microscope designed to detect signals from the fluorescent dye, propidium iodide (PI) bound to DNA. Results from the NucleoCounter® represent the total cell concentration. Key benefits • Easy operation • Maintenance and service free • Excellent reproducibility • Calibration free • Safe sample handling

Sample Preparation The sample is easily prepared using equal amount of milk sample and Reagent C (1:1 dilution), followed by inversion of the sample preparation tube to assure mixing. Load the SCC-Cassette™ with the dilluted milk sample by immersing the tip of the cassette into the solution and pressing the piston. Place the SCC-Cassette™ in the instrument and press the “Run” key. After 30 sec. the somatic cell count is presented on the instrument display and printed on the external printer. Optionally data is transferred to an external PC using USB connection.
