Single-tube setup for common laser and filter combinations
BD FACSDiva™ software's simplified cytometer setup and daily performance checking uses BD™ Cytometer Setup and Tracking beads. These uniquely designed, GMP manufactured beads are excited by all currently supplied lasers and emit in the respective detectors for virtually any fluorescent dye.
