The findings from this report will help suppliers better understand how their products are used and what types of flow cytometry reagents and instruments their customers require.Since the late 1970s, flow cytometry has enabled scientists to analyze a variety of cell types.
Today, the applications of this technology are even more broad reaching and powerful.
Through optical means, flow cytometers distinguish cells on the basis of size and shape and on the basis of molecules inside and on the surface of cells.
Some scientists think about flow cytometry as a “black box”, while others can easily operate the most sophisticated of cytometers.
Yet, nearly all scientists appreciate that flow cytometry provides a lot of information about one’s sample in a relatively short period of time.
Given that scientists are at various levels of sophistication—and have differing experimental needs when it comes to this versatile technology—how can suppliers best secure and expand their market share?To address this essential question, BioInformatics LLC surveyed 750 life scientists about the types of flow cytometry reagents and flow cytometers that they use and their opinions regarding suppliers in this market.
The findings from this report will help suppliers better understand how their products are used and what types of flow cytometry reagents and instruments their customers require.
