Great device, 1st generation was good and the 2nd is even faster, well done Logos!
Application Area: Cell culture
"After enjoying the LUNA Automated Cell Counter's first generation for so many years (red device and quite compact), I decided to add a second one and I recently got the LUNA-II™ Automated Cell Counter 2nd generation (white device and quite bigger in height but low footprint). One advantage, the blades are the same between the 2 generations, well done Logos Biosystems, you are aware of your customers' needs. The software seems faster and always reliable as usual for Korean made. So far no complaints, hopefully the 2nd generation will be as robust as the 1st generation."

Great reproducibility.
Application Area:Plant-pathogen interactions
"We work with plant-pathogen interactions, specificaly with the potato late blight oomycete phytophthora infestans. We use the Luna Automated Cell Counter to establish count zoospores for inoculation in leaves. It's much faster and more efficient in comparison to microscopy counting on glass slides."

An easy and quick instrument to help provide accurate cell counting.
Application Area:Cell Counting
"The automated cell counter is quick and easy to use for cell counting experiments. Being able to pop in my slide and get an accurate count of my cells really helps me save time and feel confident in my counts. I use this for both personal and a lab class that I TA for. It helps my students understand cell counting and cell viability."

Greatly recommend it!
Application Area:Cell counting
"Before, we used another cell counting device, but the capillary clogged a lot, the cuvettes where annoying to use, the measuring time was 30+ seconds per sample and we needed a large supernatant sample. We made the switch to the LUNA 4 years ago and won't go back! The LUNA is fast and does not need anything besides trypan blue, slides and a small sample to work. It also lowered our counting operating costs immensely!"

Application Area:Luna Cell Counter
"I have found the Luna cell counter to be reliable and very easy to use. With its small footprint it doesn't take up much space on the bench. With our work that requires 100's of counts it has meant less time has to be spent on cell counting. I would recommend to anyone who spends a lot of time counting cells."
The first in its series, the classic red LUNA™ is an automated cell counter for brightfield cell counting that is as popular as ever for its small footprint, ergonomic design, and most importantly, reliably accurate cell counts. The LUNA™ captures a high resolution image of your cells and analyzes the image to produce total, live, and dead cell counts in as little as 7 seconds. Get total cell counts for unstained cells and cell viability data for cells stained with trypan blue or erythrosin B. Live cells are tagged with green circles and dead cells are tagged with red circles, making it easy to verify the accuracy of each count. This little counter sits comfortably in a cell culture hood or on your benchtop to fit seamlessly into your workflow.
