Description
BD™ CS&T beads are used on a BD flow cytometer to provide a standardized method to perform quality control of the instrument’s optics, electronics, and fluidics, and for adjusting fluorescence compensation. On some BD instruments, BD CS&T beads are also used for adjusting detector voltages.
Preparation And Storage
• Store vials at 2°C–8°C and protect from light. Do not use after the expiration date shown on the label. • After dilution, the beads are stable for 8 hours at 2°C–25°C. CAUTION Keep the diluted bead suspension protected from light. Some of the dyes used to manufacture the beads are light sensitive. Fluorescence levels can change if beads are exposed to direct light for longer than 20 minutes.
