Sample library generated using the Cell-IQ® Analyser software. (a) Samples within the library are divided into three categories: live, phase-bright, and debris. Examples are added to the library to teach the software into which category a cell should fall. (b) Transition of human nucleus pulposus cells from a phase-bright category to a live, fibroblast category, over 48 hours.
