Excellence in Cytometry
Cytek™ Biosciences Inc. is a leading manufacturer and supplier of flow cytometry products and services. Cytek's compact, affordable instruments and wide ranging support offerings are used by researchers and clinicians all over the world.
Flow cytometry is a powerful analytical tool used for identifying and quantifying cellular characteristics on a cell-by-cell basis up to tens of thousands of cells per second. This technology is used in research and clinical studies with various biomedical and therapeutic applications such as investigating the role of the body's immune system in fighting cancer, diagnosing leukemia and lymphoma, and detecting minimal residual disease in organ transplant patients. Flow cytometry has many advantages over traditional microscopy since it enables the analysis of a greater number of cells in a fraction of the time.
At Cytek™, we are focused on accelerating the adoption of flow cytometry for one simple reason: to fuel scientific discovery.
We have leveraged our highly experienced, best-in-the-business team to bring forth an innovative new class of flow cytometry solutions. These solutions deliver deep biological insights at an affordable price, provide high-end capabilities, and bring simplified workflows to more researchers than ever before.
As a Company, we seek to maintain high ethical standards and a culture that values honesty, integrity and transparency in all that we do.
Company decisions are driven by what is right for scientific discovery and customer support. We are committed to our employees, to the environment in which we live and to the communities we serve worldwide.
