For Professionals in Research
Overview
BD® Research Cloud (BD RC), built by the creators of FlowJo™ Software, helps you organise your projects, gain visibility and control of your experiments, or quickly and easily collaborate with your colleagues.
It alleviates time spent moving data between one system and another and helps you design your next flow cytometry panel on conventional or BD spectral cytometers.

Features
Utilise the Reagent Selector tool inside
BD® Research Cloud to guide you through the flow cytometry panel design process
BD has been the leader in panel design education since the BD Horizon tours in 2014, and the Reagent Selector tool inside BD® Research Cloud guides users through a panel design process consistent with those principles.
- Define, store and share your cytometer configurations for use in panel design.
- Use the BD reagent catalogue and define custom fluorochromes.
- Define your own reagent inventory with a premium licence.
- Define your biology using pre-defined populations and add your antigen density.
- Assign your fluorochromes consistent with BD Horizon principles.
- Easily select and order reagents, share your panel with a colleague or request a quote.
- Visualise your panel with multiple spectrum viewer graphs, including a unique spectral heatmap and similarity and complexity values for BD spectral cytometers.
Discover how the BD® Spectral Hotspot Matrix can help you optimise your spectral panel performance and avoid problematic fluorochrome combinations.
The BD® Spectral Hotspot Matrix is a simple tool that predicts the unmixing-dependent spread for each fluorochrome in the context of a specific panel. It helps identify problem areas in a panel, indicating both the fluorochromes that will experience the most unmixing spread and the problematic combinations of fluorochromes that cause that spread.

Optimise the time spent on your flow cytometers and annotate your experiments for analysis ahead of time.
With BD RC, you can:
- Define your experiment away from the cytometer and then import into BD FACSDiva™ Software.
- Easily lay out your specimens or your plate, pull in your panel design information, define keywords to capture in the FCS files, and define the plots and gates for your experiment without spending extra time at the cytometer while your cells are waiting to be run.
- Store and share the workspace files and the underlying data with your colleagues as BD® Research Cloud also integrates with FlowJo™ Software directly. Changes can easily be saved back to BD RC to allow others access and save the analysis version history.
Add even more value to your FlowJo Portal ID with BD® Research Cloud
Use your FlowJo Portal ID to create your BD RC account at bdresearchcloud.com and enjoy free access to panel design and workflow integration with your FlowJo™ Software analysis.
You can create an organisation with a free Essentials license for up to 10 users to organise and collaborate on your lab’s flow cytometry experiments.
Paid Professional and Premium licenses are available for groups of any size and offer additional features and storage.
