Cytek Aurora Spectral Flow Cytometry Analyzer 4 Laser YG System with Small Particle Detection

Cytek Aurora spectral flow cytometry analyzer is equipped with 4 lasers and  capable of detecting up to 48 fluorescent parameters, giving researchers more flexibility and room to easy design a large panel of markers of over 20 colors. Besides the standard forward and side scatter channels off from blue laser, it also comes with side scatter channel off from 100mw 405nm violet laser, allowing you to detect small particles as small as nearing 100nm.  Other than the conventional individual 75mm round bottom tube loading, Aurora also comes with high throughput Automated Sample Loader, compatible for 96 well plates, 96 deep-well plates and 40 tube racks to streamline the acquisition work.

Location: Room 466, Apotex Building, University of Manitoba Bannatyne Campus, 750 McDermot Ave., Winnipeg, MB.

  • 38-48: ten fluorescent detectors off yellow-green laser

  • 49: Blue Laser Forward scatter 

  • 50: Blue Laser Side scatter

  • 51: Violet Laser Side scatter

Acquisition/Analysis software: SpectroFlo

Note:

• • How to read longpass filter detection range

    • e.g., 502LP—wavelenge Longer than 502nm will be allowed to Pass through

  • How to read bandpass filter detection range

    • e.g., 530/30 = 530nm ± (30/2)nm = 530nm ± 15nm = from 515nm to 545nm
