This product is the consumable part for LACTOSCAN EASYCOUNTER for yeast counting. EASYCOUNTER YC counts the individual cells into suspension by detecting the fluorescent signals of stained DNA in the cell nuclei with SOFIA GREEN fluorescent dye. The cell membrane of viable cells is practically impermeable to SOFIA GREEN, whereas non-viable, dead and, to some extent, apoptotic cells are permeable to the dye. Thus staining with SOFIA GREEN on a sample of the cell suspension gives results on the number of non-viable cells in the sample.
