Industry news

The MACSQuant® X was built on the premise of delivering a cytometer robust enough to process thousands of samples in a day. For that reason, it can be seamlessly integrated into a variety of robotic liquid handling systems, giving you access to unprecedented levels of automation. At the booth you will see a plate-hotel connected with the MACSQuant X, demonstrating the seamless integration.

Place your samples and walk away. Enjoy hands-free maintenance and sample processing with the built-in automation capabilities of the MACSQuant X. From start-up and cleaning routines, to compensation and shut-down, everything is completely automated.

The MACSQuant X’s integrated robotic pipetting arm can also stain your samples, allowing you to enjoy hands-free labeling of up to 384 samples at a time.

Live demonstration:

Come by our booth during exhibition hours for a live demonstration of the MACSQuant® X flow cytometer.

Flow Cytometry / Cell CountingFlow cytometers are used to count, sort and examine multiple characteristics of cells. Other cell analysis equipment includes image cytometers, cell counters, fluorescence-activated cell sorters (FACS), magnetic-activated cell sorters (MACS), and a range of flow cytometry assay kits. Flow cytometers can reveal information on cell viability, cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle progression, as well as identify cell populations and intracellular or cell-surface molecules. Additionally, some flow cytometers, known as FACS, have an additional sorting function after analysis. Cell counters and image cytometers count live and dead cell populations and can also conduct cell proliferation assays. Find the best flow cytometers, cell counters and cell sorters in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.ScreeningUsing robotics, data processing and control software, liquid handling devices and sensitive detectors, screening allows a researcher to quickly conduct millions of chemical, genetic or pharmacological tests.
