Cytek Aurora CS (S0366SP)|Configuration|Fluorescent Guide (Cytek)
- 5 lasers: 20mW Ultraviolet (355nm), 100mW Violet (405nm), 50mW Blue (488nm), 50mW Yellow-Green (561nm), 80mW Red (640nm) spatially-separated laser sources
- 64 fluorescent detectors (16UV-16V-14B-10YG-8R)
- Semiconductor array for each laser enabling more efficient spectrum capture in the 365nm-829nm range. No filter changes required for any fluorophores excited by the 355nm, 405nm, 488nm, 561nm and 640nm lasers.
- SpectroFlo® software can be run in full spectrum mode to take advantage of the full spectrum of each fluorophore or run in conventional compensation mode to assign each fluorophore to a specific detector.
- Equipped with Enhanced Small Particle (ESP) Detection Option capable of resolving particles as small as 70nm
- Pulse Area and Height for all parameters; Pulse Width of scatter parameters and one fluorescent parameter per laser
- Variable speed sorter with 70µm, 85µm, 100µm and 130µm nozzles
- Variable sample and sorted cell temperature control (4°C, 10°C, 15°C, 20°C, 25°C, 30°C, 37°C)
- Up to 2-way sorting (15mL conical tubes) or 6-way sorting (5mL round-bottom or 1.5mL Eppendorf tubes)
- Plate sorting (96-well or 384-well plates) with single cell, index sorting capability
- In-line end of sample detector to detect bubbles before they reach the flow cell
- BSL-2E compliant sorter installed inside a Baker Bio-Protect III biohazard containment cabinet with an integrated Aerosol Management System (AMS)
- Accessible to the MRF BSL-2 Enhanced Facility (2-126 MRF) through pass-through window to facilitate easy sorting access when working with HIV, SIV or other BSL-2E pathogens
