An important consideration for any analytical system is the compatibility of the system with available analysis reagents. Stratedigm’s flow cytometers are compatible with a broad range of reagents from virtually every reagent manufacturer. Owing to the S1000’s unique ability to assign detectors to any laser users are able to combine and resolve more combinations of fluorochromes than any other comparable system. Quality checks are quick, simple and affordable with our diagnostic beads; used to verify the system integrity and precision and ensure daily quality performance. Special saline sheath buffer is not required for the S1000 series. Filtered, de-ionized water can be used instead of costly saline sheath for added savings and convenience.
