Break-Through Bio-Analytical Tool to Count Viruses

A compact and easy-to-use instrument, the Virus Counter provides a direct measurement of virus or virus-like particle concentration within minutes. Unlike conventional plaque titer assays, which take days to complete, the Virus Counter provides accurate and quantitative results in less than 10 minutes. The instrument requires only minimal technical training and its small footprint makes it an easy addition to the lab.

The Virus Counter is a unique, “personal” flow cytometer designed exclusively for virus quantification. Similar to virus concentration determined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), the Virus Counter provides a measurement of the total number of virus-like particles per mL. Unlike TEM however, the assay can be completed in minutes at a per sample cost ~1000x lower than for TEM.

The instrument and assay are designed to work for both RNA and DNA viruses, such as influenza virus, baculovirus, adenovirus, rubella, respiratory syncytial virus, and cytomegalovirus. The Virus Counter assay provides a measure of the total number of virus-like particles (vlp) and is ideal for purified concentrations greater than 10⁶vlp/mL.
