Efficient systems that generate less waste can help save time and money. EMD Millipore’s Guava Easycyte 12 flow cytometry system consumes less sample, generates less waste and is easier to maintain that traditional multicolour flow cytometry systems. Capable of detecting mammalian and microbial cells and beads, the device uses three excitation lasers to provide up to 12 simultaneous detection parameters, including 10 fluorescent colours plus forward and side scatter for size and granularity determination. Single- and multi-sample processing options are offered, and high-throughput analysis is possible with robotic sample trays that automatically handle 96-well microplates and up to 10 sample tubes.
