Lactoscan SCC Somatic Cell Counter is based on fluorescent image cytometry for counting cells in milk. It fully comply with the ISO 13366-1 IDF 148-1 Enumeration of somatic cells - Microscopic method (Reference method) with regard to the staining of cells, in the definition of cells to be counted depending on the size and the methodology of the counting. The somatic cell counter offers visual control for excluding accidental errors. The measuring range of the counter is 2 to 30µm and the results are expressed as number of cells per mL. The results are available within 20 to 60 seconds depending on the type of analysis. There is no need of calibration, only a graduated scale on a LACTOCHIP is used for verification of the magnification as per requirements of ISO 13366-1:2008 (IDF 148-1:2008) Milk -- Enumeration of somatic cells -- Part 1: Microscopic method (Reference method).
