vi-cell xr software cellular imaging

The Vi-CELL XR software interface has been designed for simplicity; yet offers numerous innovative features for those users demanding maximum flexibility. For many users the main screen may be the only one they need. Everything the user requires to log in samples and view results is right there.

  • All of the available graphs, including viability %, viable size distribution, and total cells /mL are easily selectable via the drop-down menu.
  • The bioprocess tracking, auto-sampler queue and control monitoring features are easily accessed via the novel navigation bar on the left side of the screen.
  • Real-time cellular imaging provides additional information not available using standard aperture cell counting methods. This image combines cellular detail with viability, size and concentration.

    • The Vi-CELL XR bioprocess tracking feature allows convenient, automated tracking of your cell culture parameters, essential for bioreactor productivity.
    • Data points of total cell counts and viability percent are electronically recorded and stored, reducing potential errors in manual recording.

    21 CFR Part 11

    The Electronic Records and Electronic Signatures Rule (21 CFR Part 11) was established by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to define the requirements for submitting documentation in electronic form and the criteria for approved electronic signatures. Since analytical instrument systems such as the Vi-CELL XR generate electronic records, these systems should facilitate compliance with the Electronic Records Rule. By selecting the 21 CFR Part 11 option in the software, it automatically allows the user to configure the system. The Vi-CELL XR features the following key system components to facilitate 21 CFR 11 compliance:

    • Audit trail
    • Electronic signature capability
    • Secure user sign-on
    • User level permissions
    • Administrative configuration tools

    If you are currently using an earlier software version and would like to upgrade to version 2.06.3 please contact your Beckman Coulter representative.

    Please note that the Vi-CELL XR Application Software 2.06 (both 2.06.1 and 2.06.2) requires MS Windows 7® operating systems 32 bit and requires AVT Guppy Camera PN A61768. All Vi-CELL XR instruments manufactured after September 2009 or later, starting with Serial Number AN36202, will have the AVT Guppy Camera. If the Vi-CELL XR instrument has a previous version camera, please contact your Beckman Service Engineer for information regarding a camera upgrade.
