The Flow Cytometry Facility contains a BD Influx sorter cytometer that enables the identification, enumeration and sorting of cells or particles based on size and subtle differences in their optical signatures. The novelty of this state-of-the-art instrument is its unparalleled modular system, sensitivity and sorting power, provided by its manual adjustment of detectors to distinguish varying ranges of spectral bands, fluorescence intensities and other optical parameters (e.g., polarized forward scatter).
