Time-saving, easy-to-use tool with many practical functions for the cell culture.
Application Area:Cell counting and viability checks
"The LUNA-II™ Automated Cell Counter is a very useful and time-saving tool when high numbers of cell samples are to be counted. Former counts can easily be re-shown and different protocols can be saved, depending on which cell type is counted. The zoom-function also allows to easily distinguish between different cell types (according to their size) and viability state of the cells. All in all a very worthwhile tool for any cell culture Lab."

Application Area:Peripheral blood mononuclear cell counting
"I am the lead lab technician for a clinical laboratory specializing in ELISPOT assays. The LUNA-II brings fast, accurate, and consistent results, perfect for a high throughput lab. We are a start up company and funding is limited, so the affordability of the LUNA-II was a huge plus. Reusable slides can be purchased and trypan blue is very affordable, making the running costs next to nothing. The instrument itself is very easy to use and setting adjustment allows you to set your parameters to exactly how you need them. This instrument is a must have for start up companies who need fast and accurate cell counting."

Easy to use, fast and relevant counting device.
Application Area:Cell counting
"Efficient, fast and true-to-life device for counting cells. The only negative point is the lack of choice of the "with or without blue" parameter when creating a counting program. Moreover, there is nothing on the home screen to know if the trypan blue parameter is activated or not and we must check each time, in the parameters of the device, the count with or without blue trypan before we do our counting. A small suggestion would be to have more on the home screen (top right accompanying the name of the selected program for example), a blue trypan icon checked or not to have a quick information on this parameter."

Very good product
Application Area:Cell counting
"Device is really easy to use. Providing a reusable blade is a real advantage when you have a very frequent use of the device, it reduces the cost of consumables. The data obtained is reliable and reproducible. Small disadvantage: for some lines, the device does not seem to count correctly (low cell concentration and very low viability obtained on LunaII compared to the results obtained in cell Malassez). Perhaps it is due to the fact that these cells are deformed base? For having the ability to use another cell counter of another brand, the count on the LunaII is two to three times longer. But the team and I are nevertheless satisfied with the product!"

Fast and accurate cell counting!
Application Area:Cell counting
"We've had this product in the lab for about 2 years now and I have to say it really improved the cell culture experience. It makes cell counting more precise, something we tested at the beginning. It gives accurate cell number, avoiding the counting by eye. Also, preparing samples and loading them is fast and easy, so you can count several cell lines in just few minutes. The after sales care have always been available whenever we had questions, which is always valuable. All in all, I am truly thankful we get to have this product in the lab, it really makes our work easier."

Rapide, simple, reliable.
Application Area:Cell counting
"This product is easy to use. The fact that one can use a reusable blade is an advantage in terms of cost when one line is to be counted. The results are reliable, we have compared them to those obtained in Molasses cells, against the concentration must be close to 1x10 ^ 6 cells / mL. I am very satisfied with this purchase, which is unanimous within the team."
The LUNA-II™ is an automated cell counter that gives you the ultimate brightfield cell counting experience. Press count and the LUNA-II™ does the rest – bringing your cells into the sharpest focus, adjusting light levels, capturing a high-resolution image, and analyzing the image to produce accurate cell count and viability data. Create custom, cell-specific cell counting protocols or simply use the default counting protocol suitable for most cell lines or a PBMC protocol optimized for human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. 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.
