The BD FACSLyric is a new-generation high-performance flow cytometer.

The FACSLyric is a 3-laser flow cytometer that is configured with 12 independent photomultipliers. It is a high-performance, highly sensitive flow cytometer with exceptional resolution, with up to 35.000 events/sec.

Upon request, we provide a one-hour training session for the FACSLyric. Having received this training, the user can independently operate the flow cytometer and use the software FACSuite. Reservations for the FACSLyric can be made through our online calendar. Facility staff is available to go over experimental design, discussion of data analysis, or any other questions users may have.
