FlowCytes® WBC (Fixed) are a synthetic, polymer-based cell mimic that are finely tuned to match the physical and optical properties of real, fixed leukocytes, enabling reproducible instrument scatter settings that will match real cellular samples.
FlowCytes® have a multi-year shelf life, room temperature storage, low lot-to-lot variability, easy-to-use dropper bottle application, allowing for a convenient alternative to the hassle of biological scatter controls.
As synthetic, non-biohazardous materials, they require no special handling or disposal.
