===== System overview =====

{{  :optical_filters_aurora.png?0x250|}}
The Cytek Aurora leverages full spectrum technology to provide flexibility to scientists, enabling the use of a wide array of new fluorochrome combinations without reconfiguring the system for each application. The Aurora system delivers high-resolution data at the single-cell level to resolve the most challenging cell populations, such as cells with high autofluorescence or low levels of expression of key biomarkers, regardless of assay complexity.

\\
    * **5 spatially separated lasers**: Ultra-violet (355nm - 20mW), Violet (405nm - 100mW), Blue (488nm - 50mW), Yellow Green (561nm - 50mW) and Red (640nm - 80mW)
    
    * **3 scatter channels**: 488nm FSC, 405nm SSC, 488nm SSC
    
  * **64 fluorescent detectors**:
         * UV detector: 16 channels with optimized bandwidth from 365-829nm
         * V detector: 16 channels with optimized bandwidth from 420-829nm
         * B detector: 14 channels with optimized bandwidth from 498-829nm
         * YG detector: 10 channels with optimized bandwidth from 567-829nm
         * R detector: 8 channels with optimized bandwidth from 652-829nm

  * **Fluidics**
         * Vacuum-based fluidics system: manual acquisition from multiple tube formats
         * In-line flow meter: bead-less absolute cell count, bubble and clog detection
 
  * ** Automated Sample Loader (ASL)**
         * with an orbital shaker
         * compatible with __96-well plates__ , __96-deep well plates__ and __40-tube racks__
