The NovoCyte Penteon flow cytometer builds on its successful predecessor, the NovoCyte, and provides an expanded set of capabilities that accommodate today’s high-end and increasingly sophisticated multi-color flow cytometry assays. You now have the flexibility to choose from up to 30 fluorescence channels utilizing up to 5 lasers with up to 30 independent detectors. The NovoSampler Q can be integrated into different laboratory automation platforms and efficiently processes both FACS tubes (using a 40-tube rack) and 24-, 48-, 96-, and 384-well plates. The intuitive and industry leading NovoExpress software has been further advanced, providing an exceptional user experience in data acquisition, analysis and reporting.

How It Works
The Ultimate Photodetector
Silicon photomultipliers (SiPM) are solid-state, silicon-substrate-based, photon-level-sensitive semiconductor devices, with a 7.2 log dynamic range. Consisting of a compact array of avalanche photodiodes operating in unison, the SiPM is a compact detector with photon counting capability. The innovative optics designed into the NovoCyte Penteon incorporates 30 independent SiPM, which collect and process signals for each of its fluorescence channels.
