FCS Express By Dotmatics
FCS Express by Dotmatics is a flow cytometry software designed to streamline data analysis by offering user-friendly, Microsoft Office-like interfaces, advanced graphing and integrated spreadsheet tools, and specialized features for regulated and clinical environments—including 21 CFR Part 11 compliance and an FDA-listed Clinical Edition developed with clinical experts—to help users efficiently transform raw flow cytometry data into presentation-ready results.
Bridging The Gap Between Flow Cytometry and Results
FCS Express flow cytometry software helps users move from raw data to easily-understandable, presentation-ready results more efficiently than other solutions.
Explore the FCS Express Difference
Focus on Science, Not Software
Learning flow cytometry software should not hinder data analysis. FCS Express is designed to resemble familiar Microsoft Office™ programs, allowing users to become proficient quickly and focus on results.
Quality for Regulated Environments
Adhering to Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) is crucial in regulated environments. FCS Express offers features to help labs ensure the quality and integrity of their analysis workflow, including tools to satisfy 21 part 11 CFR compliance.
Analysis Tools for the Clinical Setting
Data analysis in clinical settings presents unique challenges. FCS Express Clinical Edition provides specialized tools developed in collaboration with clinical laboratories, technicians, and pathologists to meet the requirements of clinical laboratory professionals.
Flow Cytometry with FCS Express
- Advanced Graphing: Create and format bar charts, pie charts, regression analysis, and trend lines, along with various formula functions. This facilitates the visualization of relationships between statistics and how they combine to form a conceptual whole.
- Ease of Use: The software design mimics familiar Microsoft Office programs, expediting the learning curve so users can focus on results.
- Quality for Regulated Environments: Tools help labs meet 21 part 11 CFR compliance, ensuring the quality and integrity of analysis workflows in regulated environments.
- Integrated Spreadsheets: Link Excel-like spreadsheets to flow cytometry gates and data files. As gates move and data changes, spreadsheets update in real time.
- FDA Listed Clinical Edition: De Novo Software is listed as a medical device manufacturer with the FDA. FCS Express Clinical Edition is the first third-party flow cytometry data analysis software listed with the FDA, providing confidence in results.
- Publication Ready Results: Generate high-quality graphics and reports, eliminating the need for multiple tools to present results.
