M5000 Flow Cyto Prep
Sample Preparation for Flow Cytometry
The FlowCytoPrep™ is a revolutionary new instrument that automates the tediously laborious and time consuming steps of manual sampling, sample preparation and sample injection in flow cytometry. When interfaced with a flow cytometer, it allows for truly automated flow cytometer operation including sampling, washing, fixing, staining, diluting and injecting. It allows for highly accurate, reproducible and detailed analysis of cell populations without the
need for direct operator intervention. It is ideal for sample handling and bioreactor monitoring without the need for extensive operator training.
The FlowCytoPrep™ combines the latest advances in automation,fluid handling technology and digital electronics to provide one of the most advanced and user-friendly turn-key devices ever developed to make truly automated flow cytometry possible. The FlowCytoPrep™ is a compact bench-top instrument that is easy to transport and set up in the laboratory or in the field. It is a must-have instrument for any biotechnology laboratory using flow cytometry for cell and cell culture studies.
