Advantages
Acoustic assisted hydrodynamic focusing system |
What’s acoustic focusing– High flow rates of highly diluted samples – Less doublets – Anti-clogging technology – Low fluid consumption: no fluidics cart is required |
|
Automatic detection of bubbles |
The system is capable to detect bubbles stopping the acquisition and allowing to save previous data maintaining data files quality – No loss of valuable information – Save time |
|
Possible to recover unused samples |
– No loss of sample – Safe acquisition |
|
Different flow rates: 12,5, 25, 100, 200, 500 and 1.000 uL/min |
– High versatility – Quick acquisition at the fastest flow rate |
|
Variable particle velocity: |
Variable particle velocity:
– Decreases acquisition time with highly diluted samples |
|
Acquisition volume: 20 uL - 4 mL |
– High flexibility – Big accuracy |
|
Data acquisition up to 35.000 events/second | – Allows flexibility and a quicker acquisition | |
Flat top lasers |
What are flat top lasers?– Robust, sensitive and stable system – Less misalignment issues – Less need of calibration |
|
Simmer mode: lasers switched on only during acquisition |
– Increases 10X lifetime – Less technical service issues |
|
SSC detector for violet laser |
– Detection of small particles – Detection of erythrocytes simultaneously with any leucocyte population in no lyse no wash protocol with whole blood and bone marrow samples |
|
No loss of information | – All the samples are saved even if they have not been recorded during acquisition | |
No abort rate | – Possibility to save all events including electronic aborts | |
Possible to record up to 20 million events with all parameters |
– Useful for the study of samples with rare populations – MRD studies |

Flat-top parallel lasers with fixed alignment: High stability and sensitivity Lower calibration frequency |
|
Fluidics | Volumetric system: Allows absolute cell counts (cells/µL) Low fluid consumption: no fluidics cart is required Allows different types of tubes (Ø 17×100 mm and 8.5×45 mm) Recovery of unacquired volumes in loaded samples Acoustic assisted hydrodynamic focusing: Higher reproducibility and accuracy even at high rates Flow rate between 12.5 and 1,000 µL/min: 12.5, 25, 100, 200, 500 and 1.000 µL/min Higher acquisition rate of diluted samples The acoustic focusing system works only from the flow rate: 100 µL/min. At 12.5 and 25 µL/min, the fluidic system works as a standard hydrodinamic system Anti-clogging technology: Reduced risk of clogging even with high concentration samples |

Compensation
Compensation is both rapid and accurate using a guided software system. Users are only required to prepare the proper controls and adjust the voltage gates. The system adjusts the compensation and applies it to the samples.
Compensation tools
Automated compensation setup allows rapid and accurate compensation and helps to eliminate tedious trial and error adjustments
Both negative and unstained gating parameters are available
On-plot compensation for fine-tune adjustment
Modification of compensation to add or remove parameters as needed after compensation is set up
Setup and collect compensation controls directly from a plate
