If you are not currently using Asymmetrex®'s online calculators for rapidly counting the tissue stem cells in your research, please, indicate why. Please, check all that apply.
I am currently using Asymmetrex'®s online calculators for rapid, accurate stem cell counting.
I didn't know about their availability until now.
There is not a calculator available yet for the tissue stem cells in my research.
Too much cell culture prep work is required to use them.
Too expensive.
I don't understand how they work.
I don't think they can work as well as reported.
I don't know anyone else who is using them, but I would if others started first.
I don't think counting stem cell accurately is useful for my research.
Other (please specify). If a calculator is not yet available for the stem cells in your research, indicate what type of stem cells you study.
