Technology
Cytek® Guava® flow cytometers use novel microcapillary technology in a compact, user-friendly format, which is powerful enough to run your most complex assays. In addition, these simple fluidics enable a self-aligning flow cell that can be removed for cleaning by the user.
No sheath fluid allows for direct sampling using the Guava® patented microcapillary system. All Cytek® Muse® and Cytek® easyCyte™ systems use a unique, microcapillary flow cell for easy operation and minimal maintenance.
Microcapillary technology allows for direct sampling by aspiration, eliminating the need for sheath fluid (see figure). As a result, the instruments are very compact in size and simple to operate.
