A freind of mine who is in the market for a clinical flow cytometer has asked
me to post this message for him. He of course is looking to purchase either
a BD Calibur or Coulter XL. He prefers the BD for some very obvious reasons.
Coulter is telling him that BD can't deliver 4 color and that it doesn't
work. Is there anyone who has had experience with the BD 4 color option?
What about the Coulter? Is it true that the Coulter will only work with
tandem conjugates? Are there severe limitations to working with tandem dyes?
Is a dual laser approach to 4 color a better option than single laser? What
about 4 color reagents? Coulter is making claims of clinical use.

Thanks
