Benefits of using Validation Slides over NIST Standard Beads

7 Aug 2024

Automated cell counters can provide fast and precise cell counting results, but it is essential to validate their accuracy to ensure reliable cell counting results. Beads are frequently used for validating devices such as flow cytometers and automated cell counters. However, there are various issues associated with using beads. Logos Biosystems explores the cell counting standard and the advantages of utilizing Cell Counter Validation Slides for validating the LUNA™ cell counter series.

Flow Cytometry / Cell CountingFlow cytometers are used to count, sort and examine multiple characteristics of cells. Other cell analysis equipment includes image cytometers, cell counters, fluorescence-activated cell sorters (FACS), magnetic-activated cell sorters (MACS), and a range of flow cytometry assay kits. Flow cytometers can reveal information on cell viability, cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle progression, as well as identify cell populations and intracellular or cell-surface molecules. Additionally, some flow cytometers, known as FACS, have an additional sorting function after analysis. Cell counters and image cytometers count live and dead cell populations and can also conduct cell proliferation assays.
