Used DVS SCIENCES CyTOF 2 #293664549 for sale

DVS SCIENCES CyTOF 2 is a high-end laboratory equipment and accessory for single-cell mass cytometry. It is compatible with existing conventional instruments for easy integration into existing lab settings. It is used for characterizing, measuring, and quantifying the properties of individual cells. This device takes a multiplexed immunoassay approach that does not require the use of fluorescent labeling and provides spectrally resolved measurements of cell surface proteins, intracellular molecules, and secreted proteins. CyTOF 2 is capable of measuring up to forty parameters in single cells with a resolution of ~3.4 nanometers. It uses a mass spectrometer with a proprietary time-of-flight analyzer and a tunable laser diode to detect the mass and charge of antibodies attached to the cell. The laser is used to mark each cell with a unique spectral signature. This signature is then measured and used to identify the individual cell type and quantify its properties. DVS SCIENCES CyTOF 2 can be used to measure the immune status, cell cycle, and activity of single cells over time. By combining markers and spectral techniques, they can provide quantitative and qualitative measurements of cell types in heterogeneous populations. For example, it is capable of determining the size distribution, structure and activity of antigen-specific T cells. This can be utilized to track an immune response over time or assess the effect of therapy on an individual patient. CyTOF 2 comes with a user-friendly Windows-based control software for data acquisition, analysis and visualization. It features multiple levels of automation and control, making it easy to use and allowing for greater flexibility and customization. The software also includes a library of pre-loaded controls and reagents, meaning it can be used for a wide range of projects without requiring additional reagents or materials to be purchased. Overall, DVS SCIENCES CyTOF 2 is an advanced and versatile laboratory equipment and accessory. It is capable of providing detailed, quantitative, and specific information on single cells with a resolution of ~3.4 nanometers. This allows it to accurately measure the immune status and activity of cells over time, making it an invaluable tool in research of the life sciences, immunology, and cell biology.
