The Burker Haemocytometric Counting Chamber is a precision counting chamber designed for accurate leucocyte counting, but versatile enough for thrombocyte and erythrocyte enumeration. The Burker Haemocytometer includes two cover glasses per pack and uses a standard cover glass - Z50000.
Key Features
- Crafted from a single piece of thermal and shock-resistant glass.
- Two cover glasses per chamber, featuring an H-shaped moat forming up to two counting areas, or plateaus. Each area features an etched grid for maximum accuracy.
- Depth between the cover glass and the ruled surface is 0.1mm, limiting the volume of 1mm2 of sample over a square mm to 0.1mm3.
- Contact of the cover glass with the supports produces an exact amount of fluid over the counting area.
- Smooth capilliarity for precise loading and even cell loading.
| Code | Type | Depth |
| AC3000 | 2-Cell Metalised | 0.1mm |
| BC3000 | 1-Cell Metalised | 0.1mm |
Absolute Precision and Accurate Calibration
Hawksley & Sons counting chambers represent the bar for quality in the UK, being the only company to manufacture to the British Standard (BS748). Moulded from a single piece of thermal and shock-resistant glass, our Haemocytometers have been helping medical staff carry out their qualitative and quantitative research for over a century.
Precise and Well-Calibrated
Each Hawksley & Sons counting chamber has a grid etched on with extremely precise diamond etchers, capable of drawing lines less than a micrometre apart. The result is a grid the same or similar to the image.
Thermal and Shock-Resistant Glass
Hawksley & Sons counting chambers are crafted from thermal and shock-resistant glass, ensuring they can withstand rigorous and repeated testing over a sustained period.
