TBNK Panel on the SA3800 Spectral Analyzer

6 Dec 2018

TBNK (B-Cell, T-Cell, and natural killer cells) panels are frequently used to examine major leukocyte populations. All of these populations are important for normal immune function. With the ability to analyze more fluorochromes, the SA3800 allows additional subsets to be defined making the most of your precious samples. The spectral analyzer has several advantages over traditional flow cytometer.

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. 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.BiomarkersBiomarkers are biological markers which can be measured and evaluated to indicate a biological state. The use of biomarkers in research and diagnosis can indicate a normal or disease state or drug response of cells / tissues. Biomarkers include genetic markers, cell surface markers such as antigens, antibodies or receptors and secreted molecules such as cytokines. An assay system is required for identification of biomarkers. :ImmunologyImmunological techniques measure and characterize immune responses. Immunology kits and analysis systems often use techniques such as ELISA, radioimmunoassay (RIA) and immunodiffusion assays, Immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry. Immunologists use equipment such as flow Cytometers, plate readers, plate washers and fluorescent microscopes.FluorescenceThe emission of fluorescence occurs when a photon of energy is supplied to a fluorescent chemical compound by an external source, causing it to become excited. Fluorescence can be detected and measured for different purposes using microplate readers, fluorescence microscopes, fluorescence scanners, and flow cytometers.Cell AnalysisThe analysis of cells allows researchers to understand the factors which contribute to cell health and function. These influencing processes can then be predicted and altered, leading to the development of medication and disease treatments.Flow Cytometry
