Description
Counting chambers Sedgewick Rafter, plastic are laboratory chambers for counting particles and microorganisms in 1 ml of water or other liquids. The cell measures 50×20×1 mm and is graduated with a 1 mm grid that divides the 1 ml sample into 1000 µl fields for quantitative microscopic evaluation. Each chamber is supplied with a cover glass to support straightforward sample preparation and observation. These plastic counting chambers from manufacturer Marienfeld come as a single piece and offer a lightweight, practical option for routine enumeration tasks. The defined cell geometry enables consistent volumetric assessment of suspended organisms and particles in water analysis, microbiology, and environmental monitoring. Suitable for research and quality-control laboratories that need a durable, easy-to-handle Sedgewick Rafter format for liquid samples without sacrificing the classic 1 ml counting volume and 1 mm grid layout used in standard particle and microorganism workflows.
This article is part of Counting chambers & haemocytometers, in Microscopy & histology.

Questions about Counting chambers Sedgewick Rafter, made of plastic
What is this article?
Counting chambers Sedgewick Rafter, made of plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Marienfeld for laboratory use. It sits in Counting chambers & haemocytometers, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
A counting chamber is a slide with a ruled grid of known depth, so cells in a volume can be counted under a microscope. A haemocytometer is that chamber for blood or for cultured cells. The depth and the ruling are the specification. A scratched grid miscounts.
A light microscope forms an image with glass lenses and transmitted or reflected light. A stereo microscope is the lower-magnification instrument for dissecting and for looking at a surface. Fluorescence needs a light source and filters matched to the dye. Histology is the preparation that makes a tissue readable: fixation, a cassette, a section, a stain. The objective's magnification and numerical aperture decide the resolution. The slide and the cover glass decide whether the section sits in the focal plane. Stains and dyes as substances are identified on PubChem. Papers on the methods are on PubMed.
