Brea, Calif. (March 24, 2024) – CoulterFlow.com, a feature-rich online environment for flow cytometrists, offers a variety of functions that help researchers design experiments, compare and identify appropriate reagents and simplify purchasing.  New downloadable tools allow scientists to assemble best-in-class antibody panels, link to a customized My Lab page and order from an extensive online catalog. 

My Lab, a personalized workspace, allows storage, review and tracking of experiments, and access to previously ordered products.  Users can create folders and product lists, and add notes to stored experiments and links to references.

An Antibody Panel Creator helps researchers determine the best reagents and fluorochromes for a particular sample, facilitating reliable test results.  Once the reagents and an optical filter are identified, the completed panel and its components can be stored in a My Lab tab or sent to the shopping cart.

Additional features include a Multi-color Reagent Selector that assists in the selection of antibodies and conjugates, allows review of the selection and works in conjunction with the researcher’s My Lab page.

Experiment Design and Spectra Viewer tools can be downloaded to allow users to design experiments, select markers, choose reagents and check the spectral compatibility for the many fluorophores offered by Beckman Coulter.  Data can easily be printed or converted to a PDF for reports.

"Working closely with scientists allows us to successfully address their needs in today’s complex research environment," said Brad Calvin, vice president and general manager for Beckman Coulter Flow Cytometry. "The CoulterFlow.com tools provide a valuable resource for flow cytometrists and demonstrate our commitment to helping researchers achieve high-quality results."   

CoulterFlow.com covers breakthrough research and topical issues and provides interactive tools for flow cytometry.  It offers access to a continuously updated and comprehensive line of reagents for cell signaling and immune monitoring, as well as access to support reagents, antibodies, fluorophores, and quality control reagents and assay kits.

Multi-Parametric Cellular Analysis

Mar 23

Flow cytometers perform a variety of multi parametric applications and have been used for an expanding set of cell analysis applications over the past forty years.

Maintaining a Healthy Cell Culture Environment

Mar 23

Investing in best practices and products at the beginning of any experiment is the most time- and cost-effective way to approach cell culture.

Publishing Data That Conform to the MIQE Guidelines

Jan 22

Minimum information for publication of Quantitative Real-Time PCR Experiments (MIQE) guidelines help researchers design qPCR experiments.

Calibration Free Analysis to Measure the Concentration of Active Proteins

Nov 23 2009

An SPR-based method, Calibration Free Concentration Analysis can be used to accurately determine the concentration of active protein in a sample, relating to the specific binding activity of the protein, and without the need for a standard.

Advantages of Monolithic Laser Combiner Technology in Confocal Microscopy Systems

Jan 6

Fluorescence microscopy techniques require a reliable light source at the desired wavelength or wavelengths, with minimal downtime for maintenance and alignment. Lasers are a popular light source, although the alignment and upkeep of laser combiners is a time-consuming prospect for many users.

Size-Exclusion Chromatography for Purification of Biomolecules

Dec 2 2009

Size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) is a popular method to separate biomolecules based on their size. Primarily, it is applied to the separation of biopolymers such as proteins and nucleic acids, i.e. water-soluble polymers.

Improving Separation During Electrophoresis

Dec 2 2009

SeparateIT gels represent a novel gel matrix for DNA electrophoresis. Gel polymers are arranged in a conceptually different way, in accordance with a new theoretical model of gel electrophoresis.

Improving Quality of ELISA

Dec 2 2009

Using ready-to-use ELISA kits from manufacturers is easy and convenient. Sometimes however, home-made ELISA is required because there is no kit available with the right antibodies or the characteristics of the available kits such as their limits of detection are not appropriate.

Using the Tecan Genesis Workstation to Automate a Cytometric Bead Array (CBA) Immunoassay

Mar 11

The poster describe the process involved in automating a Cytometric Bead Array (CBA) immunoassay developed to measure relative concentrations of serum antibodies against Tetanus (TT), Sperm Whale Myoglobin (SWM) and Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin (KLH) in KLH-immunized volunteers.

Ensuring Quality in Assays Performed with Automated Liquid Handlers

Feb 2

The focus of this presentation is to highlight the need of ensuring quality in important assays performed with automated liquid handlers. Nearly all assays performed within a laboratory are volume-dependent. In turn, all concentrations of biological and chemical components in these assays, as well as the associated dilution protocols, are volume-dependent. Because analyte concentration is volume-dependent, an assay’s results might be falsely interpreted if liquid handler variability and inaccuracies are unknown or if the system(s) go unchecked for a long period.

Inkjet System for Protein Crystallography

Feb 1

X-ray crystallography is used routinely by scientists to obtain the three dimensional structure of a biological molecule of interest.Such information can be used to determine how a pharmaceutical interacts with a protein target and what changes might improve functionality. However, the crystallization of macromolecules still remains a serious hindrance in structural determination despite impressive advances in screening methods and technologies.

Attention Deficit & Hyperactivity in a Drosophila Memory Mutant

Attention Deficit & Hyperactivity in a Drosophila Memory Mutant

Nov 9 2009

Action selection is modulated by external stimuli either directly or via memory retrieval. In a constantly changing environment, animals have evolved attention-like processes to effectively filter the incoming sensory stream. These attention-like processes, in turn, are modulated by memory. The neurobiological nature of how attention, action selection and memory are inter-connected is unknown. We describe here new phenotypes of the memory mutant radish in the fruit fly Drosophila.

New frontiers in gut nutrient sensor research: monosodium L-glutamate added to a high-energy, high-protein liquid diet promotes gastric emptying: a possible therapy for patien...

Mar 26

Functional dyspepsia is a clinical syndrome that features abdominal symptoms centered in the upper abdomen without an organic basis. Three possible mechanisms of gastric dysfunction could be related to functional dyspepsia: 1) delayed gastric emptying, 2) impaired gastric...

Prokariotic Cell Collection in Denmark
