Cytek Aurora
Cytek Aurora is a spectral flow cytometer equipped with four lasers (405, 488, 561, 635 nm). The Aurora’s advanced technology allows the detection of the full emission spectrum, which enables it to distinguish between overlapping dyes such as GFP and FITC or APC and CY 647.
A paradigm shifting optical design provides unprecedented flexibility, enabling the use of a wide array of new fluorochrome combinations without reconfiguring your system for each application. The state-of-the-art optics and low-noise electronics provide excellent sensitivity and resolution. Flat-top beam profiles, combined with a uniquely designed fluidics system, translate to outstanding performance at high sample flow rates.
Features
