A disposable alternative to improved Neubauer chambers FastRead is made of optically clear plastic, with each slide consisting of 10 separate counting chambers and integral coverslips
They are Ideal for the quantitation of particulate matter in fluids. Applications include water, urinanalysis and cell counting. They are ideal for use high risk samples because they are ready to use, and easy to dispose of.
Reproducible	Each slide has a standardised depth providing accuracy and precision over conventional chambers
Quick	The chambers are ready for use, no placement of cover-slip required, or time-consuming decontaminationand rinse procedures
Hygienic	Slides can be disposed of in accordance with the Safety Regulations for the sample, and are ideal for “High Risk” samples
Safe	No sharp-edged cover-slip to locate over the chamber before use
Segregated chambers Each chamber is separate, with its own overflow reservoir for excess sample to prevent cross-contamination
Identification system Classification of the slides can be made by marking the moulded numbers with a permanent marker pen. The right-hand side is used for identifying used chambers, the left-hand side for numbering the slide. The frosted panel allows for additional labelling
Sample introduction Mixed sample is introduced into the chamber as a drop at the Sample Application area (see diagram) using a pipette. Accuracy is improved by using 9μl sample volume and counting more 4x4 grids. Liquid is drawn into the chamber by capillary action. Excess fluid is expelled into the overflow reservoir, leaving the correct volume above the counting grid
