CD4 monitoring for adult, paediatric measurements
Guava Technologies has announced a complete turnkey package for CD4 monitoring that requires minimum technical expertise to operate and obtain high quality results
The Guava EasyCyte Mini runs each of Guava's turnkey assays, enabling easy, fast measurements of GFP expression and viability, cell counting/viability, apoptosis, cell cycle analysis, antigen detection and more.
Assays require only micro-volumes of cells and reagents, and the system generates minimal waste.
In addition, like all of the Guava systems, the unique ability to obtain direct absolute cell counts, in addition to population percentages, allows researchers to monitor increases or decreases in overall cell number which may have an impact on their assay.
This functionality cannot be obtained with traditional sheath flow cytometers.
Guava Technologies is a provider of on-demand, easy-to-use single cell analysis systems.
Guava Personal Cell Analysis (PCA) systems, including the Guava PCA, Guava PCA-96, Guava EasyCyte, Guava EasyCyte Plus and EasyCyte Mini systems, are integrated, fully optimised, microcapillary cytometry systems with embedded absolute cell counting capability.
Guava offers a variety of assays and dedicated software modules for the Guava PCA systems, enhancing the system's overall ease-of-use.
