Water quality protection firm Fluid Imaging Technologies, of Edgecomb, Maine, introduces the FlowCAM®, a high speed imaging flow cytometer that automatically counts, images and analyzes cells or particles in a discrete water sample in one minute, or in a continuous flow in real time and stores the pictures and other data in a spreadsheet for instant review. Using proprietary pattern recognition technology, the cytometer compares the images against a digital history library of cells and particles.
