Application

Flow cytometry sample preparation.

During antibody incubation, thetaFlex delivers continuous gentle mixing to prevent cell sedimentation and hold uniform binding — replacing the offline "water bath + shaker" with one unattended, automated step from incubation through washing.

01

Sample preparation

Plate loaded and clamped in situ.

02

Antibody incubation

Heating + gentle mixing.

03

Antibody washing

Mixing between wash cycles.

04

Sample collection

Ready for detection.
