BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company) (NYSE: BDX), a leading global medical technology company, today announced the launch of the BD FACSymphony™ S6 cell sorter, which will be on display at the 33rd Congress of the International Society for Advancement of Cytometry next week in Prague. The new platform leverages the high parameter capabilities of the BD FACSymphony cell analyzer, giving researchers the ability to sort cell populations to better understand cell phenotypes for immunology and multi-omics research.

The BD FACSymphony S6 instrument offers six-way sorting and supports analysis of up to 30 parameters. It includes a scalable architecture that could be upgradable to enable greater parameter analysis in the future. This advanced platform features an ultra-quiet electronics system adapted from the defense industry that improves detection sensitivity to enable the sorting of rare cell types. Configurable through the Special Order Research Products (SORP) program, researchers will have the flexibility to ...
