The BD Accuri C6 is a small footprint (4 colours) analyser. It is easy to use as well as its acquisition software (BD Accuri). Absolute counting of cell populations (peristaltic pumps) allowing to determine their cell concentrations (cells/μl).
There are two BD Accuri C6, one of which is equipped with a sampler (SamplerPlus).
