Description

The CytoFLEX S Flow Cytometer series is an expansion of the CytoFLEX Platform. This model expands research possibilities, with a fourth laser option, multiple configurations and unique filter sets that allows investigators to focus on the science, not the instrumentation. Four different series are offered in this model. All instruments in the platform utilize CytExpert for CytoFLEX Acquisition and Analysis Software.

  • The four series are Violet-Blue-Yellow Green-Red (V-B-Y-R), Near UV-Violet-Blue-Red (N-V-B-R),Near UV-Violet-Blue-Yellow Green (N-V-B-Y), Violet-Blue-Red-IR (V-B-R-I)
  • Activate as few as four parameters and upgrade later within the series up to 13 parameters
  • For higher throughput applications an optional plate loader module is available and for use in regulated environments the software contains tools for 21 CFR Part 11 compliance

Measuring genome size and ploidy in plant species using CytoFLEX S Flow Cytometer

Flow cytometry is a powerful technique that enables the identification of multiple properties of individual particles, such as cells and nuclei, within heterogeneous mixtures. When applied to free nuclei, it is routinely used to measure genome size and ploidy levels in plants. This data is essential for identifying taxonomic units like subspecies, characterizing natural populations, and distinguishing between different modes of reproduction, whether sexual or apomictic.

Nina Chumak, Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Zurich, will discuss the benefits of using the CytoFLEX S flow cytometer for plant nuclei flow cytometry. She will also cover key practices for sample preparation and the selection of internal controls.

Key learning objectives

  • Understand the advantages of flow cytometry for determining the genome size of plant species
  • Explore the benefits of using the CytoFLEX S flow cytometer in plant applications
  • Learn best practices for sample preparation and the criteria for selecting internal standards in flow cytometry applications for plants
