Use Hemocytometer Cell Count when you need to convert the average cells per hemocytometer square into cells per milliliter. Enter Average cells per square and Dilution factor using the definitions and units below so the result can be reproduced.

Average cells per square

A finite measured or assumed value greater than or equal to 0.

Dilution factor

A finite measured or assumed value greater than or equal to 1.

The published tool contract uses this rule: Convert the average cells per hemocytometer square into cells per milliliter.

Cell concentration

The calculated cell concentration in cells/mL.

The calculation does not propagate measurement uncertainty, sampling error, or biological and chemical variability.

Retain the original Average cells per square and Dilution factor values and their units alongside the result. SCC Linear Score is useful when you instead need to convert a dairy milk somatic cell count to the standard linear score LS = log2(SCC / 100,000) + 3. Red Cell Concentration provides another view by helping you convert cells counted in a hemocytometer square into a red cell concentration in millions per microliter using countedCells x dilutionFactor / 10.

• SCC Linear Score

  Convert a dairy milk somatic cell count to the standard linear score LS = log2(SCC / 100,000) + 3.

• Red Cell Concentration

  Convert cells counted in a hemocytometer square into a red cell concentration in millions per microliter using countedCells x dilutionFactor / 10.

• Confluence %

  Compute the percentage of a culture vessel surface covered by cells from occupied and total flask areas.
