Bangs Laboratories offers a range of microspheres that may be used as standards to support assays in cell cycle analysis. Beads may be used for routine instrument set-up and QC, or as test-specific standards. Standards are available for use with flow cytometers, fluorescence microscopes, and cell viability analyzers. Custom products or preparations can also be manufactured to meet the requirements of specific assays or analyzers. For additional information regarding cell cycle analysis, see our Cell Cycle Analysis brochure.

Viability Dye Compensation Standard

Viability Dye Compensation Standards are suitable for labeling with LIVE / DEAD® stains or similarly-reactive dyes to generate compensation standards for flow cytometric analyses. Beads are not suitable for labeling with DNA stains such as propidium iodide, DAPI, or SYTOX®, and users should contact us for discussion if uncertain as to the compatibility of a specific dye or stain.
