BD FACSCanto™ flow cytometer

shared biology equipment

 

Flow CytometerThe BD FACSCanto™ benchtop flow cytometer provides an optimal workflow and time management through the automated compensation algorithms with optional off-line compensation, streamlined sample loading, and automated housekeeping routines.

It allows for setting a flexible experiment design and receiving a clean data, high sensitivity, and rapid processing rates.

 

Its key features are:

  • True 6-color capability — Get more information per cell from smaller sample volumes
  • Sensitive (<50 MESF PE, <100 MESF FITC*) — Resolves the dimmest events
  • Quick (10,000 events/sec) — Accelerates rare event acquisition
  • Low carryover (<0.1%) — Minimizes sample contamination
  • Keyed optics — Change filters without tools
  • Fixed optical alignment — No user adjustments necessary
  • Automated housekeeping routines — More time for science.

 

 

The flow cytometer is located in rm. 410. For questions, please contact Fay Dufort.
