Hi,

I'm culturing mouse B cells, stimulated, but am having difficulty counting them due to the aggregates/ foci they are forming in culture. These aggregates are difficult to disassociate for counting, when counting with trypan blue some of these aggregates stain blue but others don't. I presume these aggregates/ foci are proliferating cells so i'm not sure why they are staining blue. Or is it simply that stained aggregates are dead? There is little (if any) death of individual cells.

Can you also advise on an appropriate seeding density please?

Best wishes,

David.
