allows for the discrimination of fluorescent probes that overlap spectrally, as long as the spectra have different profiles. Tis is a great advantage because there are many fluorescent probes that cannot be used together in conventional flow cytometry, such as FITC and GFP, because they overlap spectrally and are measured by the same


detector. In spectral flow cytometry, fluorescent probes such as these can be resolved since their spectral profiles are different. Another advantage to spectral flow cytometry is that it also allows for the analysis and measurement of cellular autofluorescence. In conventional flow cytometers, autofluorescence is a noise


New compact lab balance family


The new Nimbus lab balance from Adam Equipment provides a streamlined weighing experience for scientists worldwide. Innovative design enables a


compact footprint, so the balance occupies minimal space on the laboratory bench. The Nimbus base is formed from a single piece of extruded aluminium, offering stability and highly repeatable results.


An optimised weighing


sensor contains fewer parts than a traditional force motor balance, improving the balance’s lifespan. Efficient mechanics plus improved electronics provide more consistent results andimpressive performance. The Nimbus includes all features


necessary for everyday laboratory work. www.scientistlive.com


With 10 weighing units, including a customisable unit, the balance capably handles parts counting, percentage weighing, density measurement for liquids or solids, and dynamic/


animal weighing. Intuitively designed navigation buttons are large and colour-coded, helping users operate the balance with minimal training. Convenient text prompts are visible on


the display, reminding users of the current function/weighing mode. The Nimbus is available in 15


models with readabilities ranging from 0.1mg to 0.1g. The balances with 0.1mg readability have a glass-enclosed weighing chamber, which disassembles quickly for cleaning. The units with 0.001g readability have a round glass shield to help minimise effects of air movement. Top-loading balances with readabilities of 0.01g and 0.1g are available in a selection of platform sizes.

source that limits the sensitivity of the instrument. By looking at the entire fluorescence spectrum, the SP6800 is able to treat autofluorescence as an additional parameter. Tis enables sub-populations of cells to be identified by their autofluorescence signals. Additionally, being able to un-mix autofluorescence from
