SPECIFICATION

Model: AMNIS Image Stream MK II

Manufacturer: EMD Milipore Merck

DESCRIPTION

The Image Stream MK II is a benchtop, multispectral, imaging flow cytometer designed for the acquisition of up to 12 channels of cellular imagery. By collecting large numbers of digital images per sample and providing a numerical representation of image-based features, the  Image Stream MK II combines the per cell information content provided by standard microscopy with the statistical significance afforded by large sample sizes common to standard flow cytometry. With the Image Stream MK II System, fluorescence intensity measurements are acquired as with a conventional flow cytometer; however, the best applications for the Image Stream MK II take advantage of the system's imaging abilities to locate and quantitate the distribution of signals in or between cells.

Function and Capabilities
  • Multichannel immunophenotyping
  • Exceptional fluorescence sensitivity
  • Part white blood cell differential
  • Instant population viewer
  • Image gallery
  • Instrument status at a glance
  • Gating without guesswork
  • Efficient sample handling
Technical Specifications
PropertiesAMNIS Image Stream MK II
High-throughputAnalyses thousands of cells per second at up to 60X magnification
IntuitiveSimple user interface with real time plotting and gating
AdaptableCan be configured with 1 to 7 lasers
BoundlessVariable magnification images small particles and your largest cells
Familiar Dot Plots and Histograms
Data plots are updated in real time, just as with conventional flow cytometers. Morphologic parameters such as Area, Cell Width, Cell Height, Aspect Ratio, and others can be plotted on the spot.
