Overview
The BD FACSymphony™ A5 SE Cell Analyzer offers the ability to:
- Gain full visible spectrum coverage to collect all light emitted without the need for filter changes, increasing dye flexibility and number of simultaneous colors
- Unmix spectral data live in BD FACSDiva™ Software while retaining familiar compensation workflow
- May improve resolution of difficult cells and populations using autofluorescence unmixing
- Access spectral abilities on your BD FACSymphony™ A5 instrument with an A5 SE upgrade kit
- Choose between spectral or compensation-based workflows, achieved through careful optical design and added software functionality

Features
Performance
The BD FACSymphony™ A5 SE Cell Analyzer offers flexibility of spectral unmixing or compensation-based workflows in a single instrument
Gallium arsenide (GaAs) PMTs reduce noise and increase resolution in far red and near-infrared channels
Spectral flow cytometry represents an alternative data acquisition and analysis strategy to conventional flow cytometry providing advantages in flexibility of fluorescent label inputs without having to change filters, as well as the ability to multiplex more fluorescent labels in one multicolor sample.
