Overview
BD® Research Cloud (BD RC), built by the creators of FlowJo™ Software, helps you organize your projects, gain visibility and control of your experiments, or quickly and easily collaborate with your colleagues.
It alleviates time spent moving data between one system and another and helps you design your next flow cytometry panel on conventional or BD spectral cytometers.

Features
Utilize the Reagent Selector tool inside
BD® Research Cloud to guide you through the flow cytometry panel design process
BD has been the leader in panel design education since the BD Horizon tours in 2014, and the Reagent Selector tool inside BD® Research Cloud guides users through a panel design process consistent with those principles.
- Define, store and share your cytometer configurations for use in panel design.
- Use the BD reagent catalog and define custom fluorochromes.
- Define your own reagent inventory with a premium license.
- Define your biology using pre-defined populations and add your antigen density.
- Assign your fluorochromes consistent with BD Horizon principles.
- Easily select and order reagents, share your panel with a colleague or request a quote.
- Visualize your panel with multiple spectrum viewer graphs, including a unique spectral heatmap and similarity and complexity values for BD spectral cytometers.
Organize your projects with a single-site storage platform that helps you collaborate in groups and quickly retrieve primary data and related metadata
BD® Research Cloud and the flexible workflow functionality can help you to:
- Encapsulate the data, metadata and resources associated with an experiment, then easily go back to that information as you work towards publication.
- Assign workflow steps to other members of your organization
- Define who can see and participate in your work using the Group structure
- Collaborate directly within BD RC using the chat
- Handle data management on the instrument workstation and transfer data to instrument users using cloud storage.
Optimize the time spent on your flow cytometers and annotate your experiments for analysis ahead of time.
With BD RC, you can:
- Define your experiment away from the cytometer and then import into BD FACSDiva™ Software.
- Easily lay out your specimens or your plate, pull in your panel design information, define keywords to capture in the FCS files, and define the plots and gates for your experiment without spending extra time at the cytometer while your cells are waiting to be run.
- Store and share the workspace files and the underlying data with your colleagues as BD® Research Cloud also integrates with FlowJo™ Software directly. Changes can easily be saved back to BD RC to allow others access and save the analysis version history.
Manage your reagent inventory, titers and master mixes
- Scan reagent arrivals to the lab using any device with a camera
- Track the inventory information
- Add titration information, and you can link to the FCS data
- Create staining protocols for panels
- Automatically pull in titration and lot information
- Easily calculates master mixes and buffer volumes
- Scan reagents to find location or titer information
- Scan reagents to update inventory information
- Easily add scanned reagents to wishlists
- Use wish lists to easily reorder following your lab process
