Slingshot Bio products
With synthetic cell controls you get precise, reliable and repeatable results. Spend less time qualifying results, and more time getting results.
Spectral Flow Cytometry Reference Controls
HyParComp™ and SpectraComp are single stain controls developed to optimize compensation results by reducing errors associated with spectral overlap.
Use these cell mimics as compensation controls to match the single-staining performance of real cells.
Staining HyParComp™ yields a positive fluorescence histogram that will aid in resolving the performance of the fluorophore. It will also serve as the basis for the positive signal of a given fluorophore for conventional compensation and spectral unmixing.
HyParComp™ hydrogels are separated in two vials: positive and negative hydrogels.
SpectraComp™ Positive and negative hydrogels in one vial.
Commit Biologics develops a novel type of therapeutics to treat cancer and autoimmune diseases by harnessing complement system biology.
Alex Ferapontov from the team at Commit Biologics uses the unique hydrolgel flow controls SpectraComp XT from Slingshot Biosciences:
“We are very pleased with the controls for compensation. We use them to compensate for both mouse, rat and human samples”
FlowCytes
FlowCytes synthetic white blood cells (WBC) are synthetic cells that mimic the optical properties of human blood populations for unfixed lymphocytes, monocytes, and granulocytes.
- Easy to use and seamlessly fits into existing workflow.
- Highly precise performance with minimal lot-to-lot variability.
- Long shelf-life and stability at room temperature.
- Safe, non-biohazardous product that travels anywhere.
SpectraComp Compensation Beads
SpectraComp compensation controls are synthetic cells that mimic the scatter profile of lymphocytes, captures multiple species of antibodies, and matches the spectral fluorescence of stained cell.
- Unparalleled high fluorescence response.
- Works with multiple species of antibodies.
- Exceptional performance in spectral analysis and unmixing.
- Compatible with violet and UV fluorochromes.
- Cell-like autofluorescence for superior signal-to-noise performance.
ViaComp
ViaComp viability controls are advanced 2-in-1 beads that bind to both DNA intercalating dyes and amine-reactive viability dyes to simulate the viability staining of cells.
- The only viability control that binds to both DNA and amine-reactive viability dyes.
- Exceptionally positive peak signal to make detection easy.
- Zero non-specific binding to negative peak.
- Conveniently pre-mixed negative and positive control beads.
