LUNA-II™ Automated Cell Counter by Logos Biosystems, Inc

"This is a very simple automated cell counter that is well worth considering. We count cells to set up experiments with a consistent number of input cells and to express the resulting data accurately."

"Very easy to use, the reusable slide is quick and easy to clean and load your next sample. Being able to increase magnification on the cell counter is great for instructive purposes."

"This compact, easy-to-use device is good for efficient quantitative cell processing. The accuracy of cell counts and the tools provide live visualization and the zoom allows different angles to be looked at. The service and the price can be considered competitive."

"Good and easy to use cell counter, in the upstream process development,"

"The LUNA II Cell Counter is very easy to use with high reproducibililty, limiting inter-person variation."

"Fantastic lab instrument. Very easy to use and precise. Results are very reproducible. Strength points: storage of previous results; loading of different protocols (pre-set or customized, depending on the cells used); calculation application available."

"Cell counter has a really nice display, is small so it does not take a lot of space. It is light and the person who came to show us the LUNA Cell Counter was really attentive and helpful."

"This cell counter is much easier to use than others. The user interface is fairly intuitive and allows you to customize your settings depending on cell type. You have live imaging to confirm your threshold settings as well. Lastly, I love the fact that you can use reusable cell counting slide."

"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."

"Using the LUNA-II Automated Cell Counter makes cell counting fast and easy! The device is small, but thanks to the big screen with a clear user-interface, all the necessary parameters can be easily adapted."

"The device is very easy to use. It also does not take up much space on a lab bench. The touchscreen is high quality and is very responsive to touch. Cell counting data is very accurate, even with primary cell types. Would recommend."

"The LUNA-II provides rapid and accurate cell counts. We often rely on the LUNA-II when processing many samples at a time. It helps to reduce sampling error, reduce processing times, and improve counting accuracy. The LUNA-II has built in calculators to help with achieving wanted cell concentrations (for if you are feeling extra lazy). Overall, this product works and intended and is very easy to use. A+ in our lab."

"Very easy to use and fast. The cell viability is accurate and I am able to distinguish cells from debris (leukemic cell lines)."

"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."

"The LUNA-II™ Automated Cell Counter is very easy to use and definetely worth it for any lab which needs to count their cells. It saves much time counting cells and is very precise. By setting the background and changing the counting program (which can be saved) for each cell type that is being counted, the cell counts become very sensitive and precise. Really easy to use, also with gloves on."

"There's nothing harder than counting cells. You're good until 10, but then it's easy to lose count. But NO MORE. This automated cell counter counts your cells and saves you from having to spend your time doing such archaic things as counting to two million in increments of 10. Flawless design and execution."

"We bought cell counting for our lab experimental use : LUNA-II™ Automated Cell Counter and cell imaging: CELENA® S Digital Imaging System and working with these instruments are an amazing experience. I would recommend with highest rating to all aspiring scientists out there."

"Using this equipment has made work much faster. The quality is dependable and can be trusted. It is good value for the money spent purchasing the equipment."

"I work with the LUNA-II™ Automated Cell Counter everyday since some time. It makes work easy and very fast! The results are very reliable and easy to process. The counter is easy to handle and can be easily calibrated with beads. Very nice machine!"

"I tested and used many automated cell counters and the LUNA II™ is the best on the market. I like working with it. Small, fast counting, easy to use and lowest price. It's possible to choose two different colorants and if you have a certified lab, this machine is very simple to calibrate with beads. Perfect machine!"

"The efficiency of the of the cell counter is very high. User interface intuitive and easy to use. Counting options easy to personalize to adapt it to the different circumstances."

"The cell counter saves time, is very easy to use and gives information about the cell number, viability etc. in detail, which otherwise would not be available with the classical Neubauer chamber method."

"After doing some research to find the best cell counter on the market I came across the Luna-II. This is by far the best instrument in its category. Reliable and reproducible results. Easy to use. Option for reusable and disposable slides. Low cost disposable slides. Good customer service."

"Cell counter is very convenient to use. Rapid, accurate and simple. Very useful when you need to count a large number of samples. It reduces the time you spent in the lab."

"Very accurate and easy to use. It reduces the time spent in the lab and it helps keep the results consistent!"

"It is very easy to use this cell counter and it gives accurate values for the cell lines that we are working with. Great value for that price and that is why we are switching to this now."

"The Luna-II cell counter has made cell culture much easier as counting cells can be done very fast, efficient, and accurate. I can recommend the Luna-II cell counter, as it is very easy to use, takes up only little space , multiple cell-lines can be programmed in the counter, and the results acquired with the cell-counter are reproducible."

"LUNA-II™ counts fast and reliable. It saves me several minutes lab work per day. LUNA-II™ is everybody's friend in our lab."

"Our lab (Louisiana State University's department of Civil and Environmental Engineering) bought the Logos Luna II cell counter for the purpose of counting amoeba and measuring its viability after disinfection experiments. It has been incredibly easy to use and does its job well (and honestly has saved me tons of time that I can devote to other graduate student responsibilities). Not only has it helped me count my amoeba, it has helped the other grad and undergrad students in our lab for counting E. Coli. Thanks!"

"A very easy to use and accurate automated cell counter. This machine has improved my working quality of life! Compared with its competitors there was only one choice."

"In our lab at ITREN (DKU, Cheonan, Korea) we bought cell counting: LUNA-II™ Automated Cell Counter and cell imaging: CELENA® S Digital Imaging System and working with these instruments are an amazing experience. I would recommend with highest rating. Thanks."

"Great value and time effective that which makes this product stands out among other"

"Very accurate results provided by machine. Multiple cell lines can be used and the counting slides are available at an affordable cost! Value for money and precision guaranteed!"

"It is simple and easy to use. Consumables are easy available. The results are reproducible. we have multiple of those units."

"This machine is very precise, I can count very few cells after cell extraction from the biopsies, I also used this counter to plate after transfection so I need to have a precise number of cells, the counting is very quick and you can count different type of cells without effort. Is very practical because you can register your counting or print for report, and also you can see the cells with the screen."

"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."

"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!"

"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."

"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."
