FlowTubes™ for Flow Cytometry

Item #: ASFACSTUBE 

FlowTubes™ for Flow Cytometry Instruments

  • Compatible with FACS instruments
  • Available with 35 um strainer cap, standard cap, or no cap
  • Clear polystyrene
  • 5 mL capacity
  • 12 x 75 mm

Designed for Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting / flow cytometry equipment. To ensure consistent compatibility with the automated instrument, the diameter and wall thickness is held to very tight tolerances. The tubes are available with the standard two-position culture cap, no cap at all, or with a cap that contains a 35 um nylon mesh screen. These tubes are primarily used to collect dissociated samples for subsequent processing in automated flow cytometry instruments.

 
Cell Strainer Caps

 

These cell strainers are ideal for detaching, isolating and straining cells from clusters and tissues. Their built in compatibility with 12 × 75 mm culture tubes and FACS tubes makes them especially useful for pre-sorting and preparing samples for fluorescence-activated cell Sorting (FACS). Typically, a 35 um porous mesh is used to obtain a single-cell suspension and to prevent clogging in FACS instrumentation. However, a multitude of FACS users have cited applications requiring finer pore sizes for a higher level of anti-clog protection. Others require a larger pore size for pre-sorting and/or for more efficient rapid flow.
