Guava EasyCyte Mini  

Once again Guava is making flow cytometry accessible to anyone in the lab. Novice and experts alike will appreciate the latest addition to Guava’s on-demand microcapillary flow cytometry systems – the Guava EasyCyte Mini – easy to use, surprisingly affordable, very compact, and nicely equipped with a blue laser and 3-color detection. The Guava EasyCyte Mini has all of the functionality of the current Guava EasyCyte 96-well platform but in a single sample format, making the system extremely affordable and accessible to those researchers with lower throughput needs.

The Guava EasyCyte Mini runs each of Guava’s turnkey assays, enabling easy, fast measurements of GFP expression and viability, cell counting/viability, apoptosis, cell cycle analysis, antigen detection and more. Assays require only micro-volumes of cells and reagents, and the system generates minimal waste. In addition, like all of the Guava systems, the unique ability to obtain direct absolute cell counts, in addition to population percentages, allows researchers to monitor increases or decreases in overall cell number which may have an impact on their assay. This functionality cannot be obtained with traditional sheath flow cytometers.
