Cytek Biosciences (Nasdaq: CTKB), a leading cell analysis solutions company, today announced that it has acquired the cell analysis business of Tonbo Biosciences™, which includes an extensive portfolio of life science research reagents related to cell preparation, flow cytometry, molecular immunology/PCR and cell culture covering application areas across immunology, apoptosis, and immune profiling.
The addition of the Tonbo Biosciences portfolio of reagents will enable Cytek to offer extended flow cytometry capabilities to meet customer needs in protein and cell analysis research. Tonbo’s reagents will complement Cytek’s cFluor® family of proprietary reagents, which represent the culmination of years of experience understanding full spectrum cytometry and how fluorophores react together in multicolor panels.
“Tonbo’s reagents meet the highest standards of quality and performance, making them a natural fit with our comprehensive suite of solutions for the cell analysis market,” said Dr. Wenbin Jiang, president, and CEO of Cytek. “Adding Tonbo’s reagent offerings to our existing Full Spectrum Profiling™ (FSP™) platform is yet another example of our commitment to redefining what is possible in flow cytometry and offering a total solution to our users.”
