Don’t slow your discovery down. Be the first to make breakthrough discoveries and unlock a competitive edge. Advance your knowledge with real-time imaging and drive innovation for scientific impact.
Because sometimes what looks like a homogenous population isn’t so uniform after all. Because hidden diversity and heterogeneity can sneak in and without imaging, your discoveries might never come to life.
Real-time imaging in flow cytometry gives you that clarity. It’s not just about numbers on a plot, it's about bringing your sample to life by combining flow cytometry data with spatial and morphological insights and making your data stand out. Eliminate data uncertainty and second-guessing to deliver reliable results that propel your research forward.
What if Being First to Publish Was Easier than Ever?
With real-time visuals, you can catch these surprises early and make decisions with confidence. BD CellView™ Image Technology enables a new level of data access, offering more detail and more insight than ever.
Seeing is believing and in this case, it’s also the key to better science and faster path to publication.
Real-time imaging reveals heterogeneity in GFP+ cells that traditional gating misses
Don’t gamble with your reputation. Push experimental boundaries: Gain new ways to understand, refine and innovate in your research so that you can stay ahead, publish faster and accelerate your career with a technology designed for the next generation of immunology research.
Why combine spectral flow cytometry with real-time imaging?
- Unlock deeper scientific insights, not just bigger datasets. Go beyond more data and add spatial context to flow results so that you don’t miss out on capturing that population of interest accurately.
- Sort using image-based information to distinguish cells based on how they look and where features are located: Make sorting decisions based on morphology, localization, or other image-derived features.
- Enable advanced workflows: Tasks that once required complex, time-consuming setups become faster, simpler and more intuitive.
See your cells in action now! Real-time imaging means you’re not just analyzing cells—you’re actually seeing them.
How Do You Make Real-Time Imaging Work so You Don’t Miss Important Biology?
Don’t miss on critical biological information in your cell samples. Combine image and flow data for each event to instantly visualize your cells during acquisition. This enables live visual inspection of target cells and introduces novel gating strategies based on real-time image feature analysis, leveraging spatial fluorescence distribution.
What image parameters enable:
- Real-time cell details: Quantitative readouts of cell size, shape and morphology.
- Fast population identification: Quickly spot, gate and sort key cell populations.
- Answer complex biological questions: Track cell growth and function, explore cell–cell interactions, locate viruses or proteins within cells.
