As the basic unit of life, cells feature complex and diverse structures and functions. In the long history of cell research, optical microscopes were first developed as essential tools for scientists to observe and record the microscopic world of cells intuitively. Later, the emergence of cell counters further enriched cell research tools. They enable efficient and rapid cell counting and analysis, providing convenient and intelligent technical support for in-depth exploration of cellular microcosms, among which high-efficiency cell imaging technology serves as the core key.

Nevertheless, cell counters still face multiple imaging challenges. Different cell types and pretreatment methods lead to varied cellular morphology and imaging characteristics. Therefore, high-quality cell imaging is the foundation for in-depth research on complex cytological processes.

Unstable focal planes during counting cause blurry cell images, indistinct edges and position deviation, which hinder morphological observation, increase counting errors and reduce data reliability. Automatic and accurate focal plane positioning has long been a key technical bottleneck in cell counting.

The BodBoge-JSY series cell counters deliver an upgraded and professional imaging experience, solving the above pain points effectively.

1. Adaptive Intelligent Autofocus Technology

Autofocus is widely applied in cell counters, yet it is challenging to balance positioning accuracy and scanning speed. Precise focal plane positioning usually prolongs scanning time to avoid focal plane drift and image distortion.

Equipped with an XYZ three-axis motion control system and adaptive intelligent autofocus technology, BodBoge-JSY series instruments automatically locate counting areas and complete Z-axis scanning and focusing. This ensures clear and sharp cell images in different detection areas and for cell samples in various states. The technology adapts to focal plane positioning of diverse cells, especially small-sized suspended cells, realizing precise focal plane locking through real-time dynamic adjustment.

2. High-Resolution Objective Lens Options

In biological research, 4× objective lenses are used for preliminary sample observation and positioning, and 10× lenses are ideal for routine observation and basic cell structure analysis with moderate magnification. By contrast, 20× objective lenses deliver superior imaging quality and detailed cellular morphological features, which greatly improves counting accuracy especially for tiny cell samples.

3. Specialized Consumable Support

The instrument is matched with dedicated disposable cell counting slides. The thin, flat slides feature a consistent cavity height of 0.1 mm, identical to that of standard blood cell counting chambers. This design ensures uniform cell distribution consistent with gold-standard counting methods and avoids excessive sedimentation or severe stratification of small-particle cells, thereby guaranteeing experimental accuracy and repeatability.

4. Auxiliary Functional Solutions

(1) Stitched Image Viewing Tool

Compatible with PC operation, this tool combines high-resolution imaging and multi-mode image switching. It enables detailed observation of designated regions and maximizes effective information acquisition within limited fields of view, providing comprehensive data support for cell research.

(2) Optimized Sample Processing Protocol

Verified by extensive experimental tests, the standardized and streamlined protocols covering sedimentation time and dye ratio simplify sample preparation, allowing users to design and conduct cell experiments more efficiently.

The integrated software and hardware solutions elevate the overall performance of the cell counter. They deliver stable, high-resolution and ultra-clear cell imaging that meets high-standard cell imaging requirements, empowering further breakthroughs in life science research.

Microbial quantification and viability detection are growing increasingly essential in scientific research, medical diagnosis, environmental monitoring, food industry and other fields. Traditional microbial counting and viability evaluation methods mainly rely on culture and biochemical analysis, which are limited by long testing cycles, insufficient detection information and inability to acquire real-time data.

To solve the above problems, Boda Boju has launched the JSY-FL-054 microbial cell counter. It is applicable to the counting of various microbial cells such as E. coli, bacillus, fungal spores and yeast, and can also achieve accurate counting of small particle samples including platelets.
