APPLICATIONS

BD FACSCanto™ Clinical Software on the BD FACSCanto™ II System enables automatic gating

BD FACSCanto™ clinical software automates setup, compensation analysis, and quality control for predefined clinical applications. It includes specific application modules optimized for use with specific IVD reagent kits. The modules feature automated gating, calculations, and report generation to deliver a consistent, reproducible, and standardized analysis.

Take advantage of the protocols available for various applications, such as lymphocyte and stem-cell enumeration, HLA immunophenotyping and more.

BD FACSCanto™ clinical software is an IVD-cleared product for enumerating lymphocyte subsets of samples stained with BD Multitest™ 4-Color and 6-Color reagents.

Activation Marker (BD Multitest™ CD8/CD38/CD3/Anti-HLA-DR) Software module for BD FACSCanto™ clinical software is available for supporting the acquisition and analysis of samples stained with Multitest CD8/CD38/CD3/Anti-HLA-DR on the BD FACSCanto™ II flow cytometers.

A BD^®Stem Cell Enumeration Software module for BD FACSCanto™ clinical software offers a validated analysis software, designed to meet productivity and quality requirements of clinical laboratories for the BD^® Stem Cell Enumeration Kit.

A BD^® HLA-B27 Software module for the BD FACSCanto™ II system provides a complete system for rapid detection of HLA-B27 antigen, which is clinically relevant to the evaluation of seronegative spondyloarthropathies.
