Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a real-time quantification method of cell viability through a supravital dye uptake using a lens-free imaging system. The method includes a step of incubating a sample cell in a cell culture medium, steps of detecting light penetrating the cell culture medium and identifying a boundary region of the sample cell at a preset time interval based on the detected light, a step of staining the incubated sample cell with the supravital dye, a step of detecting intensity of light penetrating the cell culture medium at a preset time interval, a step of calculating absorbance of the sample cell included in the cell culture medium at a preset time interval based on the boundary region and the detected intensity of light and a step of analyzing a viability of the sample cell based on the calculated absorbance.
