Cell Growth Quantifier (set of 8 sensors) Cell Growth Quantifier (set of 8 sensors)

The Cell Growth Quantifier is a sensor that uses an LED to emit light and a photodiode to detect the light that is scattered back. The amount of backscattered light correlates with cell density in the shake flask. This enables real-time, non-invasive monitoring of cell growth inside the shake flask. The sensors can be used for glass or single use shake flasks ranging from 100mL to 5000mL, with or without baffles, fixed with spring clip or mounted on a sticky mat.
