Key features
Description
Small footprint
Compact size with light weight saves space and is suitable for
either laboratory table or biosafety cabinet.
Accuracy & precision
With sophisticated optical components and counting algorithm,
LUNA-II
™ provides optimized and reproducible results every
time.
Autofocusing
Advanced liquid lens technology provides fast autofocusing
without mechanical moving. Autofocusing enables reliable cell
counting and excludes human error.
Easy-to-operate user interface
The intuitive user interface based on a touch screen enables
simple and easy operation.
Shortest time-to-results
Results for most cell lines are available within 15 (without
autofocusing) or 22 (with autofocusing) seconds after pressing
the [Count].
Built-in printer (Optional)
An integrated thermal printer provides concise Cell Count
Report facilitating record keeping.
Innovative counting slide
LUNA-II
™ adopts an innovative counting slide made with “T-
BOND
” technology without using hazardous organic solvents.
Cell concentration & viability range
Measurements can be made for cells at concentrations
ranging from 5 x 10
4
to 1 x 10
7
cells/ml and for cells within the
3
‒ 60
m diameter range.
Easy-to-use calculator
No external calculator is needed to calculate subsequent
dilution.
Setup & maintenance
Just plug in and it is ready for use, with virtually no
maintenance costs.
Counting image acquisition
The captured image of cells can be downloaded onto a USB
drive in TIFF (Tag Image File Format) for review or record
keeping.
Individual protocol
Different protocols (up to 300 protocols) can be saved with
personalized parameters.
Documentation
LUNA-II
™ provides a PDF (Portable Document Format) report
which includes File name, Date, Cell count results, Cell
images, and histograms.
