Automated cell evaluation for single-cell RNA-seq analysis

Single-cell sequencing allows researchers to characterize abnormal cell populations, discover and analyze rare cells, cellular map networks, and find subtle, yet important, heterogeneities. Harnessing the power of single-cell sequencing, however, requires significant investment in cost and time. Further, because all single-cell sequencing protocols rely on accurately quantifying cells before processing, accurate cell counts are a vital first step. Therefore, an automated cell counter used to quantify single-cell sequencing samples must accurately and reliably count cells of all sample types, including dissociated tissues, separated nuclei, whole blood, and cultured cell lines. Logos Biosystems demonstrates how the LUNA-FX7™ Automated Cell Counter provides not only accurate counts for many diverse sample types but also verification of sample quality.
