Cell Analyzers
NovoCyte Penteon and Quanteon
The NovoCyte platfrom is based on a fully-automated cell analyzer with flexible input through to the NovoSampler. Controlled by extremely well-designed and powerful NovoExpress software, the NovoCyte is a robust, easy-to-use workhorse analyzer platform capable of handling a range of experiments, including those requiring measurement of at least 20 colors. Equipped with high-powered lasers and unique silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) detectors that require only minimal gain adjustments and facilitate a 7.2-decade log scale, the Quanteon is capable of extremely sensitive measurements and conistent generation of data.
Key features include:
- Up to 5 high-power Coherent lasers (349 nm (Penteon only) 405 nm, 488 nm, 561 nm, and 640 nm)
- Up t0 32 low-noise, highly efficient Hamamatsu silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) SiPM detectors
- 7.2-log decade scale precluding the need for extensive detector gain adjustment
- Flexible universal sample loader for tubes and plates, including 40-tube rack for 5 mL and 1.5 mL tubes
- Stable syringe pump-driven sampling system that is capable accurate absolute counting (particles/uL) and return of unused sample
- Full automation of routine tasks - startup, QC, cleaning, and shutdown for walk-away and worry-free operation
- Automatic unclogging
- Extremely user-friendly and richly featured software that has full analysis capability as well as built-in modules for specific applications, including cell cycle and proliferation.
