Cell counting
Cell counting is an important quality control procedure in research. To increase accuracy and convenience, Logos Biosystems has developed broad range of automated cell counters and slides for counting all types of cells and bacteria. In addition we also offer several cell counting reagents.
LUNA-STEM™
Automated Fluorescence Cell Counter
LUNA-II YF™
Automated Yeast Cell Counter
