Nano Flow Cytometry

Nano Flow Cytometry

The Exoplorer™ Nano-flow Cytometer is a breakthrough instrument engineered for detailed characterization of biological nanoparticles including exosomes, viruses, lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), bacteria, and subcellular vesicles. It offers unparalleled sensitivity, resolution, and throughput to analyze particles across a wide size range of 5 to 3000 nm, perfectly supporting India’s growing biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and biomedical research sectors.

Unique Features

Why Choose Exoplorer™ for Your Research?

  • Multiparametric Analysis: Dual lasers (violet and blue) combined with 8 fluorescence and 4 scatter detection channels enable simultaneous size, count, and biochemical profiling of nanoparticles.
  • Advanced Sizing & Counting: Powered by refined algorithms accounting for refractive index and scatter signal, Exoplorer™ delivers accurate nanoparticle sizing and bead-free absolute counting at high throughput—processing up to 34,000 events per second.
  • Data Integrity & Stability: Captures multiple signal parameters (area, height, width) to distinguish true particle events from noise, maintaining precise and reproducible results for complex biological samples.
  • User-Friendly Design: Compact footprint optimized for BSL-2 biosafety cabinets, featuring low carryover (<0.1%) and accurate volumetric measurement ideal for precious samples.
  • Versatile Applications: Ideal for exosome research, extracellular vesicle characterization, viral particle analysis, lipid nanoparticle formulation, and other nanoparticle therapeutics development.

 

Empowering Indian Researchers & Innovators

With its combination of high sensitivity and multiplex capability, the Exoplorer™ Nano-flow Cytometer advances research in:

  • Exosome isolation and characterization for biomarker discovery
  • Nanoparticle-based drug delivery system development
  • Viral particle profiling in infectious disease research
  • Quality control for lipid nanoparticle therapeutics and vaccines

This instrument is a game-changer for Indian laboratories, allowing researchers to push the frontiers of nanomedicine, diagnostics, and life sciences with precision and confidence.

A brief comparison between the Exoplorer™ and CytoFlex Nano

  • Sensitivity and Size Range: Both instruments offer high sensitivity for nanoparticle detection, but the Exoplorer™ Nano-flow Cytometer boasts an extended size detection range of 5–3000 nm, enabling characterization of very small biological particles such as exosomes and viruses with high precision. CytoFLEX Nano typically focuses on a slightly narrower range starting around 40 nm for nanoparticles, making Exoplorer better suited for ultra-small particle analysis.
  • Detection Channels and Multiplexing: Exoplorer offers dual lasers (violet and blue) with 8 fluorescence channels and 4 scatter detectors, providing robust multiparametric profiling including detailed biochemical characterization. CytoFLEX Nano also features multiple lasers and fluorescence channels but often has fewer scatter detection options, which may limit the depth of simultaneous signal analysis compared to Exoplorer.

These distinctions position Exoplorer as a more specialized tool for highly sensitive and multiplexed nanoparticle research, particularly in exosome and viral particle studies, while CytoFLEX Nano is a versatile solution for broader nanoscale flow cytometry needs.
