Instrument Standard Filter Set*
* Not all filters are suitable for all fluorochromes, please speak to a member of the facility if you require different or more optimal filters.
Further information on all of our instruments can be found here.
Reporting Instrument Issues
The Emory + Pediatrics/Winship flow cytometry core is pleased to announce that we can offer remote support on some of our instruments.
If a staff member is available they will provide you with a zoom link for you to click on, this will open up a Zoom Meeting and allow two way communication via camera/microphone as well as screen sharing and control.
To request support:
Submit a Low priority Incident Report as usual via PPMS. If a staff member is available they will email you a link to click on within 5 minutes. (If you do not receive a link within this timeframe then staff are not available).
A remote session will open, you may be requested to give permission for a member of staff to share and control the screen, they will walk you through the steps.
We hope that this will provide a quicker way to assist users to resolve most issues without an in person visit.
Support is available on the following instruments:
FACSymphony A5 – Orac (https://ppms.us/emory/creatinc/?item=178)
FACSymphony A3 – Liberator (https://ppms.us/emory/creatinc/?item=190)
