Assessing single membrane-impermeable dyes for nuclei assessment derived from kidney FFPE tissue using the LUNA-FX7 Automated Cell Counter
29 May 2026This study evaluates membrane-impermeable fluorescent dyes, including PI, NucSpot 470, and YOYO-1, to determine their effectiveness in staining nuclei isolated from kidney FFPE samples using the LUNA-FX7™ Automated Cell Counter from Logos Biosystems. By optimizing dye selection and staining protocols, the study aims to improve the reliability of nuclei quality assessments in FFPE tissues, ensuring accurate results and minimizing artifacts caused by debris.

Flow Cytometry / Cell CountingFlow cytometers are used to count, sort and examine multiple characteristics of cells. Other cell analysis equipment includes image cytometers, cell counters, fluorescence-activated cell sorters (FACS), magnetic-activated cell sorters (MACS), and a range of flow cytometry assay kits. Flow cytometers can reveal information on cell viability, cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle progression, as well as identify cell populations and intracellular or cell-surface molecules. Additionally, some flow cytometers, known as FACS, have an additional sorting function after analysis. Cell counters and image cytometers count live and dead cell populations and can also conduct cell proliferation assays.
