LUNA-BX7™ Automated Cell Counter

Description

The LUNA-BX7 is an automated instrument for counting cells and assessing viability. It is designed to detect cells within a size range of 1 to 90 micrometers in diameter, with optimal performance for cells measuring between 3 and 60 micrometers. The system utilizes a brightfield imaging method to capture images of a loaded sample, followed by automated image analysis algorithms to identify and count individual cells. This process provides a rapid and consistent alternative to manual counting with a hemocytometer, reducing user subjectivity and variability. It is commonly used in cell culture laboratories for routine monitoring of cell concentration and viability during passaging or before setting up experiments.
