-
assigning fluorophores to markers provided by you
-
rearranging existing panels for improved data quality
-
expanding existing panels by adding new fluorophores
-
consolidating smaller panels into larger, comprehensive panels.
SAMPLE PREPARATION AND EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
Receive expert guidance on sample preparation and experimental design, ensuring robust results.
Services include:
-
tissue digestion protocols
-
staining protocols
-
optimal control design (compensation or reference controls)
-
utilisation of fluorescence minus one (FMO) controls.

CYTEK BIOSCIENCES IMMUNOPROFILING ASSAY KITS
Explore the comprehensive range of pre-optimised Cytek panels designed for immunoprofiling assays on human fresh blood or PBMCs. Browse available options below:
CELL SORTER - CYTEK AURORA CS
The Cytek Aurora CS is a full spectrum enabled system, best suited for panels optimised on full spectrum analysers but also compatible with conventional systems.
Both sorters are housed in biosafety cabinets, allowing for sterile sorting under PC2 laboratory conditions. Samples can be sorted into up to six populations and collected in various vessels.
Consult with one of our sort operators to discuss options and set up a trial sort.
