      Features

      The BD FACSVia™ System is compact and easy to learn and use

      The system:

      • Is equipped with BD FACSVia™ Clinical Software, which enables novice and veteran users alike to collect, analyze and report data in just a few hours, minimizing the time and cost necessary to train new staff members
      • Enables quick setup and reduces chances of errors through automated compensation, which eliminates the need to adjust instrument settings to obtain accurate results
      • Provides online eLearning, remote diagnostics and hands-on training from a BD FACSVia™ System specialist for acquiring proficiency and increasing productivity
      • Has a compact footprint that fits easily on a bench top
      • Can meet biohazard containment requirements when placed in a laminar flow hood

      The BD FACSVia™ System provides automated compensation and automated instrument QC

      • Automated compensation: pre-optimized detector settings, factory-set alignment and standardized fluorescence performance eliminate difficult, time-consuming manual adjustments. The system enables your lab to get consistent, reproducible and accurate results according to the sample type and application
      • Automated instrument QC: daily instrument QC is run to verify that the instrument is performing within specification and to automatically update compensation values. A few clicks allow you to run QC so that you can begin collecting consistent data over time and across instruments.
      • Intuitive user interface: easy to use, designed to reduce manual errors. 

      The BD FACSVia™ System improves laboratory efficiency by reducing manual processes

      • Automated processes and intuitive interface simplify and enable workflow efficiencies
      • The BD FACSVia™ Assays and Templates simplify testing. The assays incorporate BD Trucount™ Tube technology, which eliminates the need for a second instrument or a manual method for cell counting
      • The assay template populates the software with all the fields, plots and regions needed to collect and analyze data
      • The optional BD FACSLink™ Laboratory Information System (LIS) interface solution provides bidirectional transfer of information between BD FACSVia™ Clinical Software and your LIS, minimizing transcription errors and saving time

      The capabilities of the BD FACSVia™ System minimize the cost of ownership

      • Intuitive design minimizes the time needed to teach instrument operators and maximizes valuable bench space
      • The instrument uses basic fluids and preventive maintenance kits that are easy to order, use and store, minimizing the cost of maintenance and consumables
      • Optional BD FACSVia™ Loader adds automation as your workload grows. The loader is compatible with standard 12 x 75-mm and BD Trucount™ Tubes and with 96-well plates when used with the optional BD FACSVia™ Research Software*
      • Optional BD FACSLink™ Laboratory Information System (LIS) interface provides bidirectional transfer of information between BD FACSVia™ Clinical Software and your LIS
      • Optional BD FACSVia™ Research Software* is easy and intuitive and allows creation of your own laboratory tests

      APPLICATIONS

      The BD FACSVia™ System: the complete solution for leukocyte enumeration in leukoreduced blood products.

      The easy-to-use BD FACSVia™ System and BD Leucocount™ Kit help in identifying and enumerating residual white blood cells (rWBCs) in leukoreduced blood products.
      A streamlined methodology makes the BD FACSVia™ System easy to learn, easy to use and helps you do more with less.
      Easy-to-follow steps to use the BD Leucocount™ Kit
      The BD Leucocount™ Assay simplifies your ability to count rWBCs in blood products. The BD Leucocount™ Reagent stains only nucleated cells such as leukocytes, leaving platelets and red cells unstained. A simple, one-step instrument setup enables you to improve lab efficiency by reducing manual workflows.
