NEW: NovoStation

Agilent Introduces the NovoStation Sample Preparation System for Automated Flow Cytometry Workflows

Flow cytometry labs face constant pressure to increase throughput, run complex assays, and deliver consistent results across instruments and operators. Manual sample preparation often creates bottlenecks and introduces variability that affects data quality.

The NovoStation Sample Preparation System solves this by bringing automated, hands-free sample prep to your lab. Designed to pair with NovoCyte flow cytometers and NovoExpress software, NovoStation automates onboard reagent cocktailing and sample washing, creating a seamless sample-to-answer workflow.

By eliminating tedious manual prep steps, NovoStation helps you standardise processes and achieve highly reproducible data you can trust:

Drastically reduced hands-on time: Validation studies show a >90% reduction in operator effort without compromising data quality.

Higher productivity: A 25-color immunophenotyping assay (30 samples) dropped hands-on time from 85.5 minutes down to 7.9 minutes.

Streamlined efficiency: A kappa/lambda light chain workflow saw operator time fall from 89.4 minutes to just 6.8 minutes.

By handling the routine prep work, NovoStation gives your team time back to focus on what matters most—interpreting results and driving scientific discoveries.
