The FACSymphony A5 SE is the only flow cytometer capable of both conventional compensation as well as spectral unmixing of signals. Investigators running 30-parameter panels applying conventional compensation can continue to use the A5 SE without a change in protocol from the prior LSR II platform. Investigators required to expand their panel capabilities need to be able to collect up to 50 parameters and apply spectral unmixing of the signals which is imperative when utilizing this number of dyes in one sample tube.
The associated North America Classification Systems (NAICS) Code is 334516 and the Business Size Standard is 1000 employees.
THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE QUOTES.
