Does anyone have a cell counting protocol for use with a Perkin Elmer Ensight plate reader?

10 July 2019 1 2K Report

Hello

We have a Perkin Elmer Ensight plate reader that is supposed to be able to read cells, but I am having a hard time finding a protocol that will allow us to do it. Does anyone out there have such a protocol to share with us?
