Empowering Research with CytoFLEX S: Application Workshop at CRL

The Central Research Laboratory (CRL), in collaboration with Beckman Coulter and Straits Scientific (M) Sdn Bhd successfully organized a Flow Cytometry CytoFLEX Application Workshop on 29 to 30^th July 2025. The workshop was held at the ARC seminar room for the theory and presentation sessions, followed by hands-on training at the flow cytometry lab, CRL4, AMDI, USM Bertam.

The event featured a comprehensive technical talk delivered by an application specialist from Beckman Coulter, Singapore, who provided in-depth insights into the principles, setup, and applications of flow cytometry using the CytoFLEX S system. Participants were introduced to key features of the instrument, including its high sensitivity, customizable configuration, and user-friendly software interface.

The two-day workshop benefited participants, including lecturers, researchers, and postgraduate students, by enhancing their understanding of flow cytometry and equipping them with:

• Practical skills in sample preparation, instrument handling, and data analysis.
• Hands-on experience with the CytoFLEX S flow cytometer.
• Confidence in applying flow cytometry for their respective research needs.

The initiative underscores CRL’s dedication to support advanced research by providing not only state-of-the-art instrumentation but also training opportunities that bridge knowledge and practice.

CRL extends its sincere appreciation to Beckman Coulter and Straits Scientific (M) Sdn Bhd for their strong support and to all participants for their active involvement in making this workshop a success.
