Product news

The MACSQuant® Analyzer from Miltenyi Biotec is a compact benchtop flow cytometer developed with power and automation in mind. This novel flow analyzer performs absolute cell counting, multiparameter cell analysis and rare cell analysis using the new MACSQuantify™ Software.

Rare cell analysis is faster and more convenient using the MACSQuant Column and Cell Enrichment Unit when used in combination with appropriate MACS® MicroBead Reagents. For example, circulating endothelial progenitor cells can be magnetically labeled and stained, enriched, and subsequently analyzed in a fully automated fashion by the MACSQuant Analyzer. Comprehensive data analyses can be performed using the MACSQuantify Software, including the definition of complex gating strategies and analysis templates that can be customized and saved for future use. Altogether, the MACSQuant Analyzer and MACSQuantify Software make flow cytometry easier.

Flow Cytometry / Cell CountingFlow cytometers are used to count, sort and examine multiple characteristics of cells. Other cell analysis equipment includes image cytometers, cell counters, fluorescence-activated cell sorters (FACS), magnetic-activated cell sorters (MACS), and a range of flow cytometry assay kits. Flow cytometers can reveal information on cell viability, cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle progression, as well as identify cell populations and intracellular or cell-surface molecules. Additionally, some flow cytometers, known as FACS, have an additional sorting function after analysis. Cell counters and image cytometers count live and dead cell populations and can also conduct cell proliferation assays.
