The BD FACSDuet™ Premium Sample Preparation System is a comprehensive fully automated flow cytometry sample preparation system that provides a complete walkaway workflow solution offering automatic sample transfer through physical integration with the BD FACSLyric™ Flow Cytometer.
- Fuel lab efficiency by reducing hands-on time with automated onboard cocktailing, washing, centrifuging and automatic sample transfer to an integrated flow cytometer
- Reduce hands-on time by up to 80% for wash preparation methods when compared to manual workflows
- Drive workflow standardization and results reproducibility by automating manual error-prone steps that may introduce user-to-user variability
- Seamlessly automate sample preparation for both IVD and user-defined assays
- Enhance lab traceability with easy-to-pull reports of specimens, worklists and reagents to facilitate inventory and data management
The BD FACSDuet™ Premium Sample Preparation System at the Cambridge University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust laboratory
In this testimonial, David Bloxham and Dr. Fiona Cullen discuss their experience with the BD System (BD FACSDuet™ Premium Sample Preparation System and BD FACSLyric™ Flow Cytometer) and the value its implementation could bring to the laboratory.
Free up your teams to focus on critical laboratory tasks to boost lab productivity.
- The BD FACSDuet™ Premium Sample Preparation System significantly reduces hands-on time as measured in a real-world clinical laboratory
- Hands-on time for manual, LWA-assisted and BD FACSDuet™ Premium Sample Preparation System workflows for three specimens (15 tubes) per workflow.
Sample Processing Outcomes
- 4.2-fold reduction in hands-on time compared to manual workflows
- 2.6-fold reduction in hands-on time compared to semiautomatic workflows

FEATURES
The BD FACSDuet™ Sample Preparation System maximizes your lab’s efficiency
- Intuitive operating system with pre-programmed (only IVD) workflows to minimize staff training time.
- Data integration with LIS from ordered tests to analyzed results based on specimen barcodes and automated worklist preparation.
The BD FACSDuet™ Premium Sample Preparation System also offers automated onboard washing and centrifuging to further enhance your lab’s efficiency.
The BD FACSDuet™ Systems are designed to meet your needs
Deliver required flexibility by supporting a wide range of different types of blood collection tubes from different manufacturers, including BD Vacutainer®, SARSTEDT S-Monovette™, Greiner, and Streck Tubes.
Enable specimen management with tube adaptors. Eight (8) tube adaptors are available, which are barcoded and color coded for easy identification, guaranteeing accurate tube piercing and sample volume dispensing.
The BD FACSDuet™ Systems enable flexibility in specimen and tube loading
to 40 specimen tubes can be accommodated at any given time in four racks holding 10 specimens each, driving workflow efficiency and throughput.
Two types of continuous loading specimen racks are available, one of which is specifically designed for pediatric tubes.
The BD FACSDuet™ Systems allow for traceability of samples and worklist creation
- Automated barcode scanning during rack insertion enables
- Patient specimen traceability
- Specimen dispense management
Retrieving patient and assay information from the laboratory information system (LIS) for automated worklist creation on the BD FACSDuet™ Sample Preparation System and BD FACSLyric™ Flow Cytometry System.
Automated cocktailing
- The system enables the automated recording of all used antibodies for easier tracking and auditing. Part number, lot number and expiry date of the cocktail are also tracked and recorded to ensure quality and consistency in laboratory workflow.
- Each antibody cocktail can be made from a maximum of 45 unique conjugates in a single cocktailing vial. Users’ cocktail recipes are stored in the software and available for subsequent preparations of the same cocktail, ensuring reproducibility and quality of product independently from the user.
“The BD FACSDuet™ Sample Preparation System enables us to increase our laboratory’s efficiency and throughput, replacing manual processes with automated ones that are traceable and that can be automatically transferred and recorded in our laboratory information system providing a complete audit trail." “What is the potential impact of the BD FACSDuet™ Sample Preparation System? It removes our manual processes, increases our efficiency and throughput, and gives us control in standardization of processes. It’s a controlled environment.”

“At last, a fully integrated end-to-end walkaway solution, which is going to make our lives significantly easier. It reduces errors in both the pre-analytical and analytical phases, leading to increased productivity and efficiency, but most importantly provides a comprehensive fully auditable account of the whole process. Finally, a solution that creates capacity to allow us to meet our key performance indicators.”
