Haemocytometer (Cell Counting Chamber)

A hemocytometer (also known as a haemocytometer, a cell counting chamber or Microscope Grid Slide) is a tool used for manual cell counting. As the name implies, the hemocytometer was originally invented for quantifying blood cells. For counting microscopic objects suspended in fluid. Cells and platelets in diluted blood or bacteria in both culture.

There are several types of hemocytometers, all with different counting grids. The most commonly used is the ‘Improved Neubauer’ chamber.
 
The depth of the chamber is 0.1 mm. This area is subdivided into 25 smaller squares (1/25 mm2). Each of these is surrounded by triple lines and is then further divided into 16 (1/400 mm2)

What is the improved Neubauer chamber

The Improved Neubauer has an H-shaped indent at the center of the slide that separates the space into two counting chambers. Grids are engraved onto the surface to make cell counting easier and more precise.

The 3×3 mm counting grid on the Improved Neubauer is subdivided into nine 1×1mm squares. As shown in the diagram, each square is further divided into 16, 100, or 400 smaller squares. The various grids allow you to count cells of different sizes.
