The Burker Haemocytometer is a precision counting chamber designed for accurate leucocyte counting and versatile enough for thrombocyte and erythrocyte enumeration. Crafted from a single piece of thermal and shock-resistant glass, this haemocytometer ensures durability and reliability in your laboratory work.
Each Burker Haemocytometer Counting Chamber includes two cover glasses and features an H-shaped moat that creates one or two distinct counting areas, or plateaus. The etched grid or ruling on each plateau allows for precise cell counting.
Key Features:
- High-Quality Construction: Made from thermal and shock-resistant glass, ensuring longevity and performance.
- Precise Volume Measurement: The ruled surface is set 0.1mm below the cover glass, providing an exact volume of 1 cubic mm of blood or fluid per square mm for accurate counting.
- Enhanced Capillarity: The difference in surface tension between the chamber and the polished cover glass supports smooth capillary action, leading to more even cell distribution and precise loading.
- Included Accessories: Comes with two cover glasses for immediate use.
The Burker Haemocytometer is an essential tool for accurate cell counting and is ideal for laboratories needing reliable and precise measurement of leucocytes, thrombocytes, and erythrocytes.
