4) Import and Export Conditions for Flow Cytometer

Import and export conditions of Flow Cytometer: Imports to Iran mainly originate from technologically advanced countries such as the United States, Germany, Japan, and South Korea. Owing to their cutting-edge medical and biotech manufacturing, these countries are among the largest producers and exporters of flow cytometers. Given the device’s importance and wide use in research and clinical centers, import volumes to Iran are typically significant. Due to the instrument’s complexity and sensitivity, air freight is the common mode to minimize transit damage. Exports from Iran are very limited because local mass production has not been established; in some specific cases, assembled or repaired units in Iran may be exported to neighboring countries.
