Cytek® Biosciences Brings Full Spectrum Profiling™ (FSP™) Technology to the Forefront at Major Clinical Conferences in the U.S. and Europe

Industry Leaders to Explore Cytek’s Advanced Cell Analysis Solutions at ICCS and ESCCAFREMONT, Calif., Sept. 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cytek Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: CTKB) is set to elevate its presence at this year’s premier clinical industry events across the globe. Continuing its commitment to advancing cell analysis, Cytek will spotlight its Full Spectrum Profiling™ (FSP™) technology at the European Society for Clinical Cell Analysis (ESCCA) 2024 Conference in September and the 39th International Clinical Cytometry (ICCS) Meeting & Course in October. “We aim to bring our Full Spectrum Profiling technology to more labs, enhancing accuracy of results and lab productivity,” said Wenbin Jiang, Ph.D., CEO of Cytek Biosciences. Cytek will take center stage at ESCCA 2024, held from September 25-28 in Palma de Mallorca, Spain, to showcase its complete cell analysis solutions that enable scientists to advance their research, gain deeper insights and fast-track discovery. The ESCCA Conference is dedicated to advancing attendees’ knowledge and skills, driving innovation and promoting best practices in clinical cell analysis – all with the goal of enhancing diagnostic and therapeutic outcomes in healthcare. At the conference, Dr. Nicholas McCarthy, HCPC registered clinical scientist, Clinical Immunology Service for the University of Birmingham, UK, will lead a symposium focused on streamlining AML-MRD analysis using a 21-color antibody panel engineered for use on the Cytek® Northern Lights™- CLC flow cytometer. The session will take place on Thursday, September 26, 2024, from 3:00-3:30 p.m. local time. The ICCS Annual Meeting & Course in Seattle provides a platform for education, collaboration, and the exchange of cutting-edge knowledge in the field of clinical cytometry. The meeting aims to enhance the skills of professionals through workshops, courses and presentations, fostering innovation and improving clinical practices in the diagnosis and monitoring of diseases such as cancer, immunodeficiencies and hematological disorders. In line with this mission, Cytek will host a Lunch and Learn presented by David Ng, MD, FCAP, director of Flow Cytometry and Applied AI at ARUP Laboratories. This session will take place on Sunday, October 6, 2024, at 12:00 p.m. PT. “The integration of spectral flow cytometry into our workflows has been a game-changer for our resource-limited and space-constrained laboratories,” noted Dr. Ng. “Transitioning from traditional 3-4 tube 10-color panels to a single tube panel will allow us to significantly reduce consumption of reagents. Most importantly, this innovation has dramatically streamlined our processes, allowing our technologists to focus their time and expertise on high value, high skill tasks like analysis. The efficiency gains we’ll experience are not just operational – they directly translate into faster, more useful results.” For more information, please visit www.cytekbio.com.
