Disposable counting slides with defined-volume chambers for automated cell counters
Choose your counting slide according to your LUNA cell counter, detection method and workflow. Different slide formats support routine brightfield or fluorescence counting, low cell concentrations, replicate measurements and higher sample throughput.
Choose the right counting slide
| Slide | Compatible counters | Choose it for | Key point |
|---|---|---|---|
| LUNA 1-Channel Slides | LUNA-BX7, LUNA-FX7 | Low cell concentrations or when a larger counting volume is beneficial | Largest analysis volume; one sample |
| LUNA Cell Counting Slides (2-channel) | LUNA-II, LUNA-III, LUNA-FL*, LUNA-BX7, LUNA-FX7* | Routine brightfield counting; duplicate or two-sample workflows | Two chambers; *brightfield counting on fluorescence-capable counters |
| PhotonSlide (2-channel) | LUNA-FL, LUNA-STEM, LUNA-FX7 | Fluorescence cell counting | Low-autofluorescence slide for fluorescence detection |
| LUNA 3-Channel Slides | LUNA-BX7, LUNA-FX7 | Triplicate measurements or up to three samples | Three chambers |
| LUNA 8-Channel Slides | LUNA-BX7, LUNA-FX7 | Higher-throughput workflows | Eight chambers; compatible with multichannel pipetting |
| LUNA Reusable Slide | LUNA-II, LUNA-III, LUNA-FL, LUNA-STEM, LUNA-BX7, LUNA-FX7 | Reusable alternative for routine counting | Suitable for brightfield and fluorescence counting |
| SpectraSlide AP-1 | LUNA-FX7 | Fluorescence cell counting and viability analysis | Integrated AO/PI staining and click–dip–release sample loading |
