FlowCam® 8000 Series Dynamic Imaging Particle Analyzer
6 of 39
Introduction
The FlowCam 8000 Series Dynamic Imaging Particle Analyzer combines selective capabilities of flow
cytometry, microscopy, and fluorescence detection to rapidly evaluate particulate matter in a moving
fluid. The FlowCam analyzer’s high-speed digital camera automatically counts, images, and characterizes
the particles or cells in a sample.
The FlowCam analyzer uses dynamic imaging particle analysis to perform these key functions:
Examine a fluid under an objective lens backlit with a flashing LED light
With a laser, excite particles through a laser light and detect fluorescence using two different
filters
Capture images of the magnified particles within that fluid
Characterize the particles using a variety of measurements
Dynamic imaging particle
analysis uses digital images to
measure the size and shape of
each particle. The sample
containing the particles streams
through the optics of the flow
cell, and the camera captures
thousands of particle images
per second.
