Invitrogen™ Cell Sorting Set-up Beads (for blue lasers)

Approximate the size, emission wavelength, and intensity of many biological samples, and so can be used to calibrate a flow cytometer’s cell sorting system, including laser source, optics, and stream flow.

Supplier:  Invitrogen™ C16508

Catalog No. 50-112-1514

Description

• Reliable standards for flow cytometry sorter instrument setup and calibration.
• Optimized for checking cell sorter settings such as drop delay and efficiency (cell loss during sorting).
• Available for use with UV, blue, green/yellow, and red lasers.
• For blue lasers
• Fluorescent-dye infused microspheres that are excitable at 488 nm with emission in the range of 515–660 nm.
• Consistency in production, creating ideal reference standards
• Confidence through reliable, optimal instrument performance
• Compatibility—use with any instrument
• Stained internally rather than on the surface.
• Supplied as suspensions packaged in dropper vials for convenient dispensation and are available in a choice of four colors (UV, blue, green/yellow, red) to match your laser.
• Selected to provide emission peaks coincident with cells labeled with commonly used fluorescent dyes.
