Coulter EPICS® XL Flow Cytometry System
This unique system redefines the standards of flow-cytometric analysis. The Coulter® EPICS® XL Flow Cytometer combines the analytical power of a research cytometer into a compact, truly walkaway, clinical analyzer ergonomically designed to expedite sample throughput.
The XL Systemfeatures 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 walkaway 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.
The new 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 conectivity with LANtastic Software allowing pateint worklist and report generation from remote sites. The industry standard SQL/ODBC database allows connectivity to 3rd party, Windows based, software programs. True walkaway automation achieved with the new AutoPrime feature.
The EPICS XL is available in 3 or 4-color configurations, with or without the MCL.Ask your Coulter representative about the configuration that best meets your laboratories needs.
