8.1 Technical specifications for NucleoCounter SCC-100
Specificity Somatic cells stained with the DNA specific fluorescent dye, PI.
Sample types Milk samples containing dispersed somatic cells.
Sample consumption The sample is mixed with a lysis buffer prior to analysis. It is
recommended that at least 500 µl of sample are used for this
dilution in order to reduce error caused by sample handling.
Approximately 50 µl of the lyzate mixture is loaded into the
cassette
Analysis volume Approximately 2 µl of the lyzate mixture is being analyzed in
the NucleoCounter SCC-100, corresponding to approximately 1
µl of milk.
Somatic Cell Count in a volume of milk sample Measurement range
Total range:
Recommended range: 10,000 to 2,000,000 cells/ml
100,000 to 750,000cells/ml
Presentation of Result The NucleoCounter SCC-100 presents the estimated SCC in the
milk sample when milk and Reagent C are mixed in equal
amounts.
Operation Menu-controlled by means of keyboard and LCD display.
Analysis time When pressing “Run” on the NucleoCounter SCC-100 the result
will be displayed within 30 seconds.
