Standardization Capability on Spectral Flow Cytometers

15 Feb 2019

Sony has developed a standardization function, that globally standardizes Sony spectral instruments. The function ensures researchers have consistent operating parameters from instrument to instrument. This technical note discusses and shows how standardization worked successfully with both beads and cells on six Sony SA3800 spectral analyzer instruments located in the United States, Europe, and Japan.

SA3800 Spectral Analyzer

Sony Biotechnology

The Sony SA3800 spectral cell analyzer incorporates advanced electronics, patented optical technologies and many points of automation to deliver true workflow simplicity.Spectral technology in the SA3800 optimizes sensitivity and enhances dim signal detection by collecting photons from 420nm to 800nm. It also simplifies multicolor application design, workflow and analysis for experienced and novice users.

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.
