Cytek/Amnis ImageStreamX Mk II

The Cytek / Amnis® ImageStreamX Mk II imaging flow cytometer combines the high throughput performance of flow cytometry with the imagery and functional insights of microscopy, which enables a broad range of applications that would be impossible using either technique alone.​ The ImageStreamX Mk II system is a benchtop, multispectral, imaging flow cytometer designed for the rapid acquisition of millions of cells with up to 12 channels of cellular imagery. The instrument collects large numbers of digital images, performs spectral compensation and provides high quality images of every cell in your sample. Combined with the advanced image analysis software where each object is measured for hundreds of parameters using not only fluorescence intensity but the fluorescence spatial location as well, the ImageStreamX system offers an unprecedented level of cellular information.

FCRC facilitates access to ImageStream service and support from the Columbia University Stem Cell Initiative (CSCI) Flow Cytometry Core (FCC). RU researchers can access the unique Cytek / Amnis ImageStreamX Mk II Imaging Cytometer with the full-service support from the CSCI FCC, led by Director of Operations, Michael Kissner.

To access to the instrument, RU researchers will receive a free initial internal consultation from FCRC Staff. Requests for services are handled via the FCRC-PPMS system. After the initial internal consultation, RU researchers will be directed to meet with Michael Kissner for the Experimental Design and Data Analysis Consultation to discuss experiment-specific details and schedule experiment(s). Samples should be hand delivered to CSCI in accordance with instructions from CSCI FCC. All data acquisition will be performed by CSCI FCC Staff in presence of the RU researcher. Experimental results received electronically may be analyzed by the RU researcher on the FCRC Analysis Workstations free of charge, or by CSCI Flow Cytometry Core for a fee. To minimize administrative burden on RU researchers, access and payment for all the services provided by CSCI FCC are coordinated through the FCRC.
