1. What is Kaluza?
Kaluza Software is a revolutionary flow cytometry analysis software solution designed for high content data. Kaluza provides visualization tools, speed and an innovative simplicity to the flow community. With features designed to make your life easier in the lab, Kaluza aims to provide a greater understanding of the data generated by modern cytometers. Kaluza employs patent pending technology that allows for real time analysis of high content files allowing you to spend your valuable time on discovery.

2. Is Kaluza compatible with the fcs files from my system?
Kaluza is compatible with files that comply with the fcs standard through the most recently released standard. The software has been tested against a large repository of these files, but there are also tools are available within Kaluza to ensure that parameters are loaded properly, i.e. linear vs log.

3. Where can I purchase the Kaluza software?
You can pre-order Kaluza by clicking here or selecting the products link from the menu above.

4. Where did the name Kaluza come from?
Theodor Franz Eduard Kaluza (November 9, 1885 - January 19, 1954) was a German mathematician and physicist known for the Kaluza-Klein theory involving field equations in five-dimensional space. His idea that fundamental forces can be unified by introducing additional dimensions re-emerged much later in string theory. His theories attempted to rationalize complex multidimensional space which is analogous to the challenges faced with when analizing complex flow cytometry data.

5. How is Kaluza licensed?
Kaluza is licensed through the use of a hardware key, commonly known as a romlock or dongle. These keys provide provide flexible portability of software from one computer to another and for analysis on your laptop when you are on the move.

6. How does the network license work?
The network license provided with Kaluza is based on the number of concurrent sessions running Kaluza. An unlimited number of computers can have the software installed. The network license will control the maximum number of users are actively logged into the network key. The key management software can be easily access through a web-based program.

7. What are the recommended computer specifications?
Kaluza employs patented technology that revolutionizes the speed at which data is analyzed. As with all software, the speed at which it operates is dependant on the specification of your hardware as well as the size and complexity of the data being handled. For ultimate performance we recommend the following computer specification  Click here for detailed configurations.

8. How do I get more performance from my current system?
Kaluza provides you with an Event Sampling Mode that allows you to optimize performance with large event files on suboptimal computer workstations. It can be accessed from the Kaluza Options dialog from the main launch icon. This feature optimizes performance when moving gates or updating compensation by setting the application to temporarily decrease the number of events that appear on the plot.


9. What operating systems are compatible with Kaluza?
Kaluza can successfully install and operate in the Windows XP and Vista 32-bit PC environments. Kaluza is also compatible with MAC hardware using those operating systems under dual-boot programs such as " Bootcamp" . At this time, Kaluza is not compatible with 64-bit systems or Windows 7.

OS X systems running in a virtual machine environment with Windows such as "Parallels" and "VirtualBox" has not been verified and has been known to show visual glitches. Also, the demo mode in virtual machines has been disabled.

Innovative Radial Menu
Kaluza´s novel use of a radial menu provides fast access to all plot and region editing eliminating the need to hunt for features.  Kaluza´s novel radial menu selection is invoked by a simple right mouse click. It brings all of the software functions right to where you are working on the screen and removes the need to repeatedly journey to the menu bar at the top of the screen. This saves the time spent moving the cursor, hunting for menu items as well as a dramatically reducing the multiple mouse clicks needed to perform simple functions on other software platforms.

Radar plot Overlay plot

The radar plot provides a multidimensional view of data without drawing a single gate. Clusters are easily seen in multiple dimensions, revealing relevant and rare populations typically not seen using traditional bivariate plots and gating strategies.

overlay plot
Overlay plots can be used to clearly show slight differences in populations. Novel features such as translucency adjustment can be used to further visualize overlaps.
Tree plot

Tree plot
In a single display, the tree plot can easily represent what typically otherwise requires dozens of plots, gates and regions. Each of "tree branches" represents a unique phenotype that can be used as a gate for further data exploration.

"Kaluza™ Analysis software is for Research Use Only".

Key Features:
Innovative simplicity
New multiparametric visualization tools
Revolutionary speed

New Features:
Tree plot for complete phenotypic breakdown in a single display
Animated radar plot for multidimensional data display
