App Description

Culture in real time

The success of your cell culture relies upon controlling the variables to ensure consistency. The Gibco® Cell Culture Companion app helps you eliminate variability by allowing you to record cell culture data in the lab, as it happens. Capture and store vital experiment information on your iPhone or iPad in the lab as you count cells, perform cell culture calculations and generate growth curves. And when you're finished, you can export all data files to your Mac or PC.

The app includes the following tools to simplify the daily task of working with cells:

• Lab timer (run up to 4 at once)
• Cell counter - replace your outdated click counter
• Dilution helper – simple solutions calculator for everyday use
• Cell viability calculator – import counts from our cell counter or enter in your cell counts directly into the app
• Cell passaging tool – passage cells with ease by importing in cell count data or importing in cell viability from previous tools
• Quick doubling time calculator
• Plot growth curves and doubling time from saved data – send plots to your inbox for saving in your lab notebook
• Cell culture basics training manual and videos
• Built in data storage and management – store, save and export all your data in one device
