MUHWA Hemocytometer Neubauer Chamber with Grid and 2 Coverslips

Description

Product Overview

The MUHWA Neubauer hemocytometer is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of modern biomedical laboratories, offering a bright‑grid counting chamber that combines precision engineering with user‑friendly design. Constructed from high‑quality borosilicate glass, the chamber features a thin, transparent metal‑coated grid that provides exceptional optical clarity while maintaining structural durability. The bright grid lines are etched with a high‑contrast dark metallic background, allowing researchers to easily distinguish individual cells against a clear visual field. Each chamber includes two 0.4 mm glass coverslips, precisely sized to fit the external stages of the counting area, ensuring a consistent sample volume of 0.1 µL per grid square. The compact dimensions—3.11 × 1.57 × 0.67 inches—and lightweight construction (1.44 oz) make the device easy to handle, store, and integrate into standard laboratory workflows. Certified by MUHWA for quality and performance, this hemocytometer has earned a strong reputation among scientists, reflected in its high customer rating of 4.3 stars from over 40 reviews and its ranking as #16 in the Lab Cellware Chambers category on major e‑commerce platforms. Whether used for routine blood cell counts, microbial quantification, or educational demonstrations, the MUHWA Neubauer hemocytometer delivers reliable, repeatable results that support accurate data collection and analysis.

The device’s technical specifications include a chamber depth of 0.1 mm, a grid pattern of 9 × 9 large squares each subdivided into 16 smaller squares, and a total counting area of 1 mm² per large square. The bright‑grid design minimizes the need for staining in many protocols, reducing preparation time and reagent costs. The glass material is chemically inert, allowing for thorough cleaning with ethanol or distilled water without risk of degradation. The included coverslips are manufactured to ISO 11138 standards, guaranteeing uniform thickness and optical quality. MUHWA’s quality control process involves laser‑based inspection of each grid to verify line uniformity and spacing, ensuring that every unit meets exacting standards for scientific accuracy.

Usage

Designed for versatility, this hemocytometer is suitable for a wide range of applications, including hematology, microbiology, cell culture, and environmental testing. In clinical settings, technicians can employ the bright‑grid chamber to perform rapid complete blood counts, differentiating leukocytes, erythrocytes, and platelets with high fidelity. Researchers in academic laboratories often use the device to enumerate bacterial colonies, yeast cells, or cultured mammalian cells, benefiting from the precise volume control provided by the included coverslips. The transparent construction allows seamless integration with standard light microscopes ranging from 4× to 100× magnification, and the bright grid enhances contrast without the need for additional staining in many protocols. The chamber’s durability ensures it withstands repeated cleaning cycles with ethanol or distilled water, making it a cost‑effective solution for high‑throughput environments. Users ranging from seasoned scientists to undergraduate students will find the ergonomic design intuitive, reducing the learning curve associated with cell counting techniques and improving overall laboratory efficiency.

Best practices for using the hemocytometer include allowing the sample to equilibrate to room temperature before loading, gently placing the coverslip to avoid air bubbles, and using a calibrated pipette to deliver the exact volume required for accurate counting. After loading, the chamber should be examined under low magnification to locate the grid, then switched to higher magnification for detailed cell enumeration. Counting protocols typically involve counting cells in multiple squares and applying the appropriate conversion factor to calculate concentration per milliliter. The bright‑grid pattern simplifies this process by providing clear visual cues that reduce observer fatigue and improve reproducibility across different operators.

FAQ

What is the optimal magnification for using this hemocytometer?

The chamber works well with magnifications ranging from 4× to 100×, but most protocols recommend using a 10× objective with a 10× eyepiece to achieve the standard field of view for cell counting.

Can the coverslips be replaced with other thicknesses?

Yes, the chamber is compatible with standard 0.17 mm and 0.3 mm coverslips, but using the supplied 0.4 mm coverslips ensures the calibrated volume of 0.1 µL per grid square is maintained.

How should the hemocytometer be cleaned after use?

Rinse the chamber with distilled water to remove residual sample, then clean with a mild ethanol solution. Allow it to air‑dry completely before storing to prevent moisture buildup.

Is this hemocytometer suitable for counting microorganisms?

Absolutely. The bright‑grid pattern provides sufficient contrast for bacterial and yeast cells, and the precise volume control enables accurate colony‑forming unit calculations.

What warranty does MUHWA offer for this product?

MUHWA provides a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects, along with access to technical support for any usage questions or concerns.
