Introduction
ADAMIITM is a bench top uorescent cell counting analyzer that can be used in either a hospital and
research laboratory.
It has 4-channel (Bright, Yellow (PE), Red (PerCP) and Green (FITC)) light sources, so three color
uorescence samples can be analyzed simultaneously. The automatic X-Y-Z stage captures a maxi-
mum of 136 images and which increases the accuracy of analysis.
The obtained images are processed by image analysis software integrated in the system. All proce-
dures are automatic once the stained sample has been placed in the disposable assay slide.
[Features]
• A benchtop uorescence cell counting analyzer
• Can be used in hospital and research laboratory
• Visualize: Quantitative results with visual conrmation
• Quantify uorescence-labelled cells without sheath tank maintenance

You can use the adjustment options below if you think that the
counting results are not adequate.
• Sensitivity: refers to the contrast of the objects from the background
- Adjusting the sensitivity higher makes instrument
more sensitive to objects
- While adjusting the sensitivity lower makes the
instrument less sensitive and is useful if there is a lot
of background
• Circularity: used to determine which objects to include in the
measurement based on their roundness
- Increasing the value from 80% requires objects to
be more round for inclusion in the measurement
- Decreasing the value from 80% allows objects to
be less round
- Adjusting this may be useful if the cell type is not
particularly circular or perhaps oddly shaped

Cleaning and Maintenance
Clean the surface of ADAMII™ instrument with a damp cloth. If liquid spills on ADAMII™, turn off the
power immediately and wipe dry.
ADAMII™ does not need regular maintenance. To troubleshoot problems with ADAMII™, contact
technical support.
IMPORTANT! Never disassemble or service ADAMII™ by yourself.
Unauthorized repairs may damage ADAMII™ or alter its functionality, which will void your
warranty. Contact ivdst@nanoentek.com or your local distributor to arrange for service.
IMPORTANT! Always wipe surfaces with ethanol-soaked paper towels.
Do not directly spray ethanol anywhere on ADAMII™.
IMPORTANT! Avoid exposing ADAMII™ to UV light.
UV light may degrade components, including plastic.
Damage from UV exposure is not covered under the manufacturer’s warranty.
