Product description

High-sensitivity flow cytometer with up to three lasers, eight-color detection, and 10,000 events/sec throughput.

The BD Biosciences FACSCanto is a high-performance benchtop flow cytometer designed to deliver reliable and accurate cellular analysis for both clinical diagnostics and advanced research applications. Introduced in 2004, this system has been widely adopted in various scientific fields due to its precision and ease of use.

Key features include:

  • High sensitivity and resolution: Patented optical design maximises signal detection, enhancing the analysis of complex cell populations.
  • Automated workflows: Integrated software automates setup, compensation analysis, and quality control, reducing hands-on time and improving reproducibility.
  • Flexible configurations: Supports up to three lasers and eight-colour detection, accommodating a wide range of multicolour assays.
  • High throughput: Processes up to 10,000 events per second, facilitating efficient data acquisition for large sample volumes.
  • Minimal sample carryover: Innovative sample injection design ensures less than 0.1% carryover, maintaining sample integrity.

The FACSCanto is extensively utilised in biotechnology, immunology, haematology, and clinical diagnostics for applications such as immunophenotyping, cell cycle analysis, and apoptosis assays. Its versatility makes it suitable for university laboratories, biomedical research centres, and clinical diagnostic labs.

With its robust design and advanced automation, the BD FACSCanto remains a valuable tool in modern laboratories, supporting a wide array of research and diagnostic endeavours.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
