#115 — Hepatocytes are liver cells that are essential for its function. They are also essential for certain branches of drug testing and diagnostics.

However, they have irregular shapes, multiple nuclei, and can clump, which makes them difficult to process and count accurately.

In this episode, we explain how to prepare the best hepatocyte samples possible.

We also explain the latest automated machine learning-based tools that make hepatocyte counting easy and do essential sample-based calculations for you, removing tedious math. See the full article here. [1]
