DxFLEX is a new clinical flow cytometry platform derived from the successful CytoFLEX. 

A compact design, intuitive software, up to 13-color detection and an enhanced optical path for increased sensitivity ensure accurate results 

and makes flow cytometry data collection easy even for novice users.

Functionality in the autoloader facilitates accurate results and sample tracking.

Features:

Flow System

  • Inlet system for 12×75 mm & micro-scale sample tube loading via single tube loader(up to 30,000 events per sec)
  • DxFLEX Autoloader is compatible with 32-tube carousel and 96-well plates*
  • Preset cleaning & maintenance programs with automatic maintenance reminders for easy maintenance
  • Three preset sample rates (high; medium; low) plus user-controlled option

            * Plate loading is not available as CE-IVD

 

Intelligent Software

  • Simple intuitive interface & automated parameter optimization for improved work efficiency
  • Graphical operating tools for adjusting threshold, gain, compensation & more directly on results graph
  • Convenient compensation library stores compensation values of fluorescent dyes in multicolor experiments for future use
  • English/ Chinese bilingual interface

 

Standardized QC

  • Automated instrument quality control procedures & reporting (laser delay/power, channel gain, mean fluorescence intensity, rCV) for more reliable stable results
  • Standardization procedure can be used to monitor Median Fluorescent Intensity (MFI) and track gain changes for assays.

 

Optical System

  • The DxFLEX flow cytometer uses Avalanche Photodiode detectors instead of PMTs. The low electronic noise contributes to the resolution capabilities of the instrument.
  • Wavelength Division Multiplexer uses bandpass filters to deconstruct the light and efficiently deliver to the detectors by fiber optics.
