Flow cytometer with four solid state lasers with automatic sampler

Attune NxT flow cytometer consists of a cell (pump) for sample injection, an optical system with "solid state flat top" diode lasers, electronics with an associated software package, and a part for storing working fluids and waste reagents. Attune NxT is a small device with dimensions of 40 cm x 58 cm x 43 cm, it is easy to use and maintain, and it is sufficient for normal laboratory conditions. The system is upgraded with an automatic sample collection unit CytKick Max Autosampler. This enables rapid processing of multiple samples by automatically analyzing samples from 96-well and 384-well plates (standard and deep-well plates), as well as sampling from custom-sized plates and 1.5 or 2 microcentrifuge tubes. It includes a "boost mode" that enables faster sample processing. In addition, by using special plate racks and a microcentrifuge, it enables passive cooling of samples.
