    For microparticle absolute count by flow cytometry
    Form

    MP-Count Beads is a suspension of 3 μm FL2 / PE fluorescent beads with known concentration

    Biological microparticles ("MP") are cellular vesicles of heterogeneous size ranging from 0.1 to 1 μm. In order to get an absolute count of microparticles by flow cytometry, the use of small sized counting beads is a pre-requisite. Thus MP-Count Beads are the appropriate beads for this application. They fit with the settings of MP analysis and their small size (3 μm diameter) avoids artefactual loss and problems of sedimentation that are often encountered with the use of bigger beads.
