BD FACSymphony™ S6 Cell Sorter
Manufacturer: BD Biosciences
SKU: ions
Description
Designed for complex isolation tasks, the BD FACSymphony S6 is a cell sorter that employs spectral flow cytometry technology. Its optical system uses a full spectrum detection array to resolve fluorescence from numerous fluorochromes, even those with overlapping emission profiles. This capability allows for high-parameter panel design, facilitating deep immunophenotyping prior to sorting. The instrument is built for high-speed processing to meet the demands of workflows in immunology, stem cell research, and oncology. A closed, sterile fluidic path and integrated aerosol management system are key features for maintaining cell viability and ensuring biosafety when sorting cells for downstream culture or therapeutic use. The platform includes automated calibration and quality control procedures to promote operational consistency. An intuitive software interface provides control over sort parameters, including modes for single-cell, purity, or yield optimization, making it a core instrument for laboratories requiring precise analytical cell sorting.
