Comet Assay IV - an innovation in scoring

Working closely with leading experts in the field, Perceptive Instruments have released Comet Assay IV: the world's fastest, most consistent comet assay scoring system.

How it works

Getting started with Comet Assay IV^TM is as simple as installing the software and connecting the camera. This can be done in a few minutes either by yourself or your IT department. Once running, Comet Assay IV displays a live video image onscreen that mirrors what you see by looking down the microscope's eyepiece. Any refocusing or stage movements performed at the microscope level are shown live on screen without any lag or delay.

Scoring cells with Comet Assay IV is a uniquely effortless process. Simply use the mouse to click on each cell you wish to score. Each scored cell within the field of view is marked with a cross to help prevent scoring the same cell twice. In no time at all, you will be fluent enough with the system to score a typical slide in about two minutes.
