Beckman Coulter Life Sciences DxFlex

Beckman Coulter Life Sciences has launched its DxFlex 13-color clinical flow cytometry system. The system uses avalanche photodiode technology to create a highly sensitive semiconductor electronic device to convert light to electricity, which the company said addresses the limitations of traditional photomultiplier tube-based flow cytometers and reduces compensation spillover. The system will be marketed in Europe and will be available in countries that accept the CE mark.
