BD Celesta Analyser
Temporarily relocated to L4/61
The newest addition to the lab is a BD Celesta flow cytometer.
This machine is equipped with 3 lasers and can detect 14 parameters simultaneously.
The BD FACSCelesta is the first flow cytometer optimized by design to work with BD Horizon Brilliant dyes The Celesta fits neatly on our benchtop.
Our Celesta has a HTS installed to improve experimental workflow, the HTS provides rapid, fully automated sample acquisition from 96- and 384-well microtiter plates.
For most applications, standard throughput mode is optimal and can be selected for acquisition of larger sample volumes. For selected applications, the high-throughput option, can speed through a 96-well plate in fewer than 15 minutes with less than 0.5% sample carryover from one well to the next.
For access to this machine please contact the Flow Core Facility Manager.
Applications: Analysis of cells, parasites, bacteria, DNA analysis/cell cycle, apoptosis and multi-colour immunophenotyping, Fluorescent proteins, cell proliferation, rare cell detection etc.
