Introducing the SpectraSlide AP-1: A convenient one-touch solution for rapid cell analysis

26 Nov 2025

Automated cell counters, like the LUNA-FX7™, have revolutionized cell counting by replacing traditional labor-intensive methods. However, the process still requires additional labware and staining dyes, which can be challenging for beginners and those with limited access to laboratory resources.

In this study, Logos Biosystems conducted a comparative analysis of SpectraSlide® AP-1 and PhotonSlide™, as PhotonSlide™ is already widely used as a standard for cell counting. Using U937 and PBMC samples, we assessed their linearity in measuring cell concentration and viability to validate the precision and effectiveness of the SpectraSlide® AP-1.
