Product Overview
The LUNA-STEM is an automated, compact cell counting and viability analysis system that combines dual fluorescence optics and image analysis software. Its interactive touchscreen makes accurate cell counting a simple experience.
Using Acridine Orange (AO) and Propidium Iodide (PI) to stain live and dead cells, respectively, the LUNA-STEM™ provides highly sensitive and accurate results for most cell types. Adipose-derived stem cell and SVF samples can be counted as live nucleated cells, dead nucleated cells, and non-nucleated cells with precision and consistency for downstream procedures.
Designed for cost-efficient and accurate cell counting, the LUNA Reusable Slide has the affordability of manual cell counting without the associated subjectivity and time. Photon Slides are disposable precision slides made with optical quality materials for optimal fluorescence signal detection. The slides offer the ultimate counting experience with no mess or clean up, while maintaining the highest standard of cell counting accuracy.

DEMONSTRATION VIDEO
BENEFITS
TWO COUNTERS IN ONE
LUNA-STEM can count in both brightfield and fluorescence mode. Built-in software automatically generates cell viability data upon cell counting. For validation purposes, live and dead cells are tagged with green and red circles, respectively
COMPATIBLE WITH STEM CELLS & CELLS FROM STROMAL VASCULAR FRACTION (SVF)
The various cells within the SVF can be recognised and counted as non-nucleated cells or live and dead nucleated cells simultaneously, which may not be possible with other cell counters.
FAST COUNTING & IMAGING
Images generated from three channels in 30-60 seconds.
USER-FRIENDLY INTERFACE
Customise and save protocols, verify results immediately onboard, use the dilution calculator, and gate cells on histograms with a few taps on the LUNA-STEM touchscreen.
SIMPLE RECORDKEEPING
Print data with an external printer or export high-resolution images, data and full data reports via USB.
THE LOWEST COST, THE GREATEST CONVENIENCE
Perfect for labs on a budget, the LUNA works with reusable slides, delivering the affordability of manual cell counting without the associated time, subjectivity and user-to-user variability. The disposable LUNA Cell Counting Slides offer accurate cell counting with no mess or cleanup. PhotonSlides are made with optical quality materials with ultra-low autofluorescence to allow for optimal fluorescence detection.
