Helios™ Specification Sheet-1

FLUIDIGM PN 101-0723 A1 SPECIFICATION SHEET Helios A CyTOF® system Helios™ brings high-parameter capabilities to protein research, expanding the breadth and depth of phenotypic and functional profiling in single cells. Helios technology addresses the challenges of high-parameter, single-cell analysis, providing researchers with tools to dissect the complex proteomes of cell systems in normal and diseased states. Helios analyzes individual cells labeled with stable metal isotopes using state-of-the-art Helios Specifications* Description Specification Instrument response 600,000 counts/pg Tb Detection limit 350 antibodies/cell Dynamic range 4.5 orders of magnitude Calibration Automated Operating system Windows® 7 Pro 64-bit Data storage 7.2 TB RAID (mirrored) Sample introduction Pneumatic single tube loader with agitation, up to 5 mL volume Peak throughput 2,000 events/sec Flow rate 30 ^L/min inductively coupled plasma time-of-flight (TOF) technology. With 135 detection channels, Helios can simultaneously resolve multiple elemental probes at high acquisition rates, thereby maximizing the per-cell information obtained from a single sample. The system’s newly designed pneumatic sample introduction system and its new software interface make mass cytometry more accessible than ever.
