Related Product Information

 

This unique system redefines the standards of flow-cytometric analysis. The flow cytometer combines the analytical power of a research cytometer into a compact, truly walk away, clinical analyzer ergonomically designed to expedite sample throughput.

EPICS Options & Accessories

The XL system features the capability to analyze up to 4 colors of immunofluorescence from a single air cooled laser. Other multi-color applications include: multiparametric DNA analysis, platelet studies, reticulocyte enumeration, cell biology/functional studies and as well as a broad range of research applications. The instrument is self contained and biohazard safe. The user retains the flexibility to change filter elements for versatility in research settings.

For high volume users, the XL-MCL system offers walk away sample handling for superior efficiency with the Multi Carousel Loader (MCL). Capable of throughputs of up to 100 samples per hour, the fully featured XL-MCL incorporates positive bar-code identification and true vortex mixing prior to aspiration.

The XL remains the only flow cytometer to offer state-of-the-art Digital Signal Processing (DSP) for reliable linearity and drift-free amplification and compensation. The single laser design eliminates concerns regarding multi-beam stability, signal delay and alignment. Compensation is achieved by a unique digital compensation matrix.

SYSTEM II Software

The XL SYSTEM II™ software fully automates instrument set-up and compensation for 2, 3 and even 4-color applications. Optional features in the software include tetraONE, the 4-color, one tube, automatic analysis algorithm and reticONE, the automatic analysis algorithm which revolutionizes reticulocyte analysis. Other SYSTEM II features include complete network connectivity with LANtastic Software allowing patient work list and report generation from remote sites. The industry standard SQL/ODBC database allows connectivity to 3rd party, Windows-based, software programs. Plus, true walk away automation is achieved with the AutoPrime feature.
