Invitrogen™ Attune™ NxT Flow Cytometer by Thermo Fisher Scientific

"Great performances and easy experiment design with a very intuitive software."

"High throughput, easy to use. It has not clogged up since we got it 8 month ago!"

"The Attune NxT is easy to use, quickly switching between tubes and plates. The software is very intuitive and user friendly and has a lot of options for different data to display."

"We had very clear training and the machine is very easy to use. Last week, we used it to check our experiments and were very satisfied with the results."

"The software is very user-friendly, allows users to easily run the equipment alone. Great for clumpy, concentrated samples, runs really fast, allows you to save data post-acquisition. "

"Purchased and utilized this product at a small biotech company. Excellent software design. Essentially clog proof. And an excellent price."

"I have not had a great experience with this equipment. We purchased it around 5 years ago and I have not been able to get successful results in any experiment. Customer care is ambiguous in their responses, where depending who you call you get different answers and none work. Some of their own protocols do not work well, thus I am disappointed with this equipment."

"We have been using the Attune NXT cytometer for 4 months with complete satisfaction. It's not only stylish and has an extremely small footprint, but it is extremely efficient, fast and out performs all the other cytometers we have used in the past. The 4 laser capacity makes multiplexing feasible and easy, and the added automatic compensation takes the hassle out of manual compensation. The best feature is that we have yet to clog the machine with our debris-rich primary tumor samples. Of course, the acoustic technology greatly facilitates the identification of small populations, like cancer stem cells, increasing our capacity to detect and quantify these rare events with high efficiency and reliability. The instrument has lived up to our expectations at all levels. The software is also easy to use, but takes time to get used to. It's like going from a PC to a Mac, but in no time we have mastered the very user friendly application."

"Although it can only detect 4 colors, Attune NxT is a valuable flow cytometer for an individual lab. It is affordable, very easy to use with straight forward instructions, simple screen display and can analyze samples both in microplates and regular flow tubes. Invitrogen also offers technical support, and will train people for a reasonable price. The machine is compact, easy to clean, comes with one laser but has the capacity of adding more. "
