    A novel fluorescence cytophotometer enables automated multi-parameter cell analysis. This system allows rapid, consecutive determination of cellular constituents for advanced data retrieval and display.

    Area of Science:

    • Cell Biology
    • Biotechnology
    • Medical Instrumentation

    Background:

    • Traditional cytophotometry methods can be time-consuming and limited in multi-parameter analysis.
    • The need for automated, high-throughput cell analysis is crucial in various biological and medical fields.
    • Existing instruments may lack the flexibility for rapid, consecutive measurement of multiple cellular components.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a new fluorescence cytophotometer designed for advanced multi-parameter cell analysis.
    • To demonstrate the instrument's capability for automated, multi-color fluorescence cytophotometry.
    • To showcase the system's utility in performing combined measurements of cellular constituents.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a fluorescence cytophotometer (Olympus BH2-QRFL) with four interchangeable filter sets for multi-color analysis.
