Physical integration between the BD FACSDuet™ Sample Preparation System and the BD FACSLyric™ Flow Cytometer allows technicians to load samples and reagents onto the BD FACSDuet™ Sample Preparation System and obtain results once the samples are acquired and analyzed on the BD FACSLyric™ Flow Cytometer. Data integration using the BD FACSLink™ Middleware Solution offers bidirectional communication between the instruments and connectivity with laboratory information systems (LIS).
“Flow cytometry in the clinical lab is a complex process that involves multiple workflows and manual steps. There is therefore a need for lean and effective technologies to reduce lab costs, increase quality and limit error rates. The BD FACSDuet™ Sample Preparation System is the continuation of our 45-year history of making reliable flow cytometry solutions that are robust, easy to use and improve the clinical lab workflow,” said Puneet Sarin, president of Biosciences at BD.
