      BD FACSDiscover™ S8 Cell Sorter

      The first real-time imaging, spectral flow cytometer

      Overview

      Derive greater insights and unlock new discoveries using image-enabled sorting and spectral flow cytometry.


      BD FACSDiscover™ S8 Cell Sorter with BD CellView™ Image Technology and BD SpectralFX™ Technology the first spectral flow cytometer sorter with sort-capable image analysis, expands the power of cell analysis and sorting to new dimensions by combining spectral flow cytometry with real-time spatial and morphological insights—empowering scientists to address previously impossible-to-answer questions.

       

      • Obtain insights on cell populations and characteristics that can be visually confirmed in real time during analysis and sorting
      • Enhance spectral flow cytometry with spatial and morphological insights to interrogate and sort cell types that previously could not be identified or isolated
      • Simplify your workflow with built-in visual inspection capabilities, more flexible panel design and automated features
      • Create a comprehensive profile of highly complex diseases and systems with correlation of downstream analysis with imaging and traditional flow data

      BD SpectralFX™ Technology increases flexibility by maximizing and simplifying the choice of fluorochromes detectable per laser. Expanding the palette of colors provides in-depth single-cell insights that can be isolated with sorting for further downstream studies.

      Although spectral cytometry can seem intimidating or complex, our advanced spectral cytometry system offers you a guided user-interface including individually adjustable spectral detectors, auto-alerts if a detector is saturated and the flexibility to easily assign an autofluorescence-matched negative for each single color control.


      Automated stream setup and six-way sorting streamlines operation while maximizing sample utilization

      • Offers automation technology with BD FACSChorus™ Software and guides you through the entire cell sorting process with its intuitive interface, on-screen instructions and tips, and simple-to-read reports
      • Combines the proven and exclusive BD fixed alignment, gel-coupled cuvette sorting technology with automation and simplified software
      • Uses a streamlined workflow to eliminate manual setup of the stream and monitoring of the sort, minimizing hands-on time and providing walk-away sorting capability
      • Enables six-way sorting into 5-mL collection tubes




      Comprehensive QC and setup covering all lasers and all detectors

      • Multi-spectrum BD FACSDiscover™ QC and Setup Beads are excited by all lasers and emit into all detectors for full-spectrum analysis
      • Automated LEDs provide seamless detector QC across the full spectrum
      • Characterization of the instrument baseline and daily performance are summarized in a concise and simplified report
      • Daily instrument optimization available to account for changes in the cytometer

      The BD FACSDiscover™ S8 Cell Sorter has been designed with safety in mind

      We have partnered with The Baker Company to design a custom biosafety and sorting solution. Our solution is comprehensive and keeps your cell sorting activities running smoothly and safely, so you can focus on your research.
