Analysis: 5-Laser Cytek Aurora

SpecificationsLocation

The Cytek Aurora Cytometer leverages full-spectrum technology to provide unprecedented flexibility, enabling the use of a wide array of new fluorochrome combinations without reconfiguring the system for each application. 

The Aurora delivers high-resolution data at the single-cell level to resolve the most challenging cell populations, such as cells with high autofluorescence or low levels of expression of key biomarkers, regardless of assay complexity.
