BD Accuri C6 Flow Cytometer

BD Accuri C6, BD Biosciences.

BD Accuri C6 Flow Cytometer is afforadable, bench top and very user friendly flow cytometer analyzer from BD Biosciences. This flow cytometer is very useful for the research projects which involves analysis of regular fluorescence which are in the range of FITC, PE, PerCP and APC. The instrument has fixed voltage which makes it easy to load sample tubes and analyze. Sample tubes can be anything such as 0.5mL tubes, 1.5mL tubes, 5mL tubes, 24 well plate, 48 well plate, even 96 well plate can be used. Before and after analysis, the cytometer runs the cleaning and decontamination automatically.

Instrument is also installed with CSampler which makes it easy to load the tubes and walk way.

Lasers: 2 lasers (488nm Blue Laser and 640nm Red Laser)

Detectors: 530/30, 585/40, 670LP and 670/30.. (There are also optional detectors available from BD)

Software: Accuri C6 Software and CSample Software.

Accuri C6 software can acquire up to 10,000 events per second and data is digitally collected over a 7-decade dynamic range. The fluidics system in accuri can determine the sample volume and can calculate absolute counts. It can also detect the sample concentration per micro liter.
