Cell Counters: Accurate count & results

Better Counts for Better Science

Cell counting is a fundamental quality control procedure in research. It’s simple. It’s straightforward. But it’s also error-prone, time-consuming, and highly subjective. Logos' automated cell counters are equipped with high-quality optics and sophisticated software to bring you cell concentration and viability data with incredible speed, accuracy, and reliability.

It’s as simple as pressing COUNT!

The Standard For Accurate Cell Counting

Cell counting is a critical and routine part of many cell culture laboratory workflows. The practice usually involves directly counting individual cells in a small volume in order to get an estimate of how many cells are in a larger volume. This can be useful for culture maintenance, setting up assays, assessing the health or viability of cells in a culture, and clinical or diagnostic applications.

Take your cell counting to the next level 

With a growing emphasis on both inter- and intra-lab reproducibility in research, the seemingly simple act of getting accurate cell counts is now more important than ever. Logos' image-based automated cell counters act as your eyes, a microscope, image-analysis software, and a computer to produce consistently accurate and reliable cell counts.

 

The LUNA series are equipped with high-quality optics and sophisticated
software that make cell counting as simple as inserting your sample and pressing ‘count’.
Cell concentration and viability data, images, and histograms are at your fingertips in as little as 7 seconds.
