STeBi Engineering Team has designed, developed and built the
working prototype of a true Innovative System which
conjugates
in one functional Unit
an advanced Hi-Sensitivity Flow Cytometer
and a Hi-Speed. Hi-Resolution, Optical Image capturer & Processor.
The
Cytoimager & NucleOSoft are under validation and testing at
National Cancer Institute of Napoli -IT.
The System outperforms:
The Optics and Detectors perform Fluorescence pulses detection
and transducing at sensitivity down to 100 MESF / Cell, and it's easy
to detect Scattered light pulses originated by Bacteria ( D < 0.55
m ).
The Acquisition Electronics is able to acquire up to 16 Signals at
the same time(2Sc+14Fl) and simoultaneusly convert them in Digital
format at min.4096 ch's Resolution and at 50 Samples/10
mSeconds.
This means: a) the time during which the System is "blind" is T<5mS
------------------versus T> 70 mS of most popular flow cytometers;
---------------b) the Digital shape of analog pulses is 50 times more
------------------"fidel" to the original ones; Competitors get 1S/10mS
The Digital Signal Processing (DSP) electronics works on both
Image capturing / triggered Tachometer module and flowcytometry
one, so to perform light synchronisation for capturing still images of
each flowing cell, and electronic compensation of the exceptionally
low optical overlap of FITC on PE (<9% by specific optical design).
The Software Packages to acquire and analyse flow cytometric
data by our systems (CytoImager and stONE)are now at 1.0.06
revision. Now, both with our scientific partners, the engineering
team is planning the "training strategy" for the
Neural Modules.

The NEW "stONE" is an 8 parameters, Hi-sens, Hi-resolution
Flow Cytometer "intelligent" system. More, it's equipped, of course,
with modular solid state excitation laser sources covering the range
275, 365nm/up to 100mW, 488nm/20mWand 635nm/20mW.
The stONE is very compact, lightweight and cost effective.

Dimensions: (H x L x D in mm) 20 x 40 x 26 - weight < 5Kg.
Technical Specifications and Cross Validation coming soon.
