The NucleoCounter NC-100 has 9 different levels of sensitivity, which can be adjusted to
count the different types of cells. Type 1 is the least sensitive (default NC-100) and
should be used for the counting of mammalian cells.
We recommend that NucleoView is used to select the best Type for your cells, by
ensuring that cell signals are separated from debris and other noise from the sample.
