    STEMvision™

    Automated and standardized colony counting for the hematopoietic colony-forming unit (CFU) assay

    Overview

    STEMvision™ consists of an instrument and software designed specifically for imaging and counting colonies in hematopoietic colony-forming unit (CFU) assays using MethoCult™ media and meniscus-free SmartDish™ cultureware. STEMvision™ software, known as Analysis Packages, replaces the need to manually count colonies using a microscope. 

    For human cultures, three Analysis Packages have been designed for scoring and counting hematopoietic colonies produced by erythroid, myeloid and multi-potential progenitor cells in 14-day assays of CB, BM and MPB cultured in MethoCult™ Optimum media. A fourth Analysis Package is also available for counting the total number of colonies in 7-day assays of CB cultured in MethoCult™ Express medium. 

    For mouse BM cultures, three Analysis Packages have been designed to count total numbers of hematopoietic colonies produced by all combined myeloid and erythroid progenitors in M3434, myeloid progenitors only in M3534 and erythroid progenitors only in M3436. 

    Selection of at least one Analysis Package is required for instrument purchase. Additional Analysis Packages are sold separately for labs that currently own a STEMvision™ instrument. 

    Select your preferred Analysis Package and Request Pricing for further information. Several purchase and leasing options are available.
