The Modular Full System - Piezo Head contains all the accessories the user needs. Thanks to its open design, it is a very adaptable gadget with the ability to shape it to any demand.
Viable cells
Following the sorting procedure, one viable cell is delivered to each PCR tube.
Unprecedented precision
Excellent liquid handling precision: 0.1 nanoliter, with a single cell isolation efficiency of >90%.
High-speed imaging
Typical scanning speeds range from 100 to 1,000 cells per second, with cell picking speeds ranging from 3 to 4 single cells per minute. The sorting speed while collecting numerous cells is one cell per second.
High-quality imaging
Computer vision can distinguish between unlabeled and fluorescent cells. Sort cells that have been tagged with fluorescent probes or markers.
Highly modular
There are several alternatives for a more personalized experience and a better fit.
User-friendly
Fully automated with a user-friendly interface.
Software included
Cellsorter offers user-friendly software with an easy UI and free software upgrades for all instruments.
