The QuickPick-Full System enables controlled, high-throughput single-cell sorting directly from a Petri dish (or multiwell plate) with minimal sample preparation. It combines a fluorescence microscope with a digital camera, a syringe pump, a computer with software and controllers.
Using computer vision, the system can detect both unlabeled and fluorescent cells and sort any adherent cell types. The system can also isolate a subpopulation of live adherent cells expressing fluorescent or luminescent markers.
Features:
Viable cells
Following the sorting procedure, one viable cell is delivered to each PCR tube
Adjustable runs
The number of cells selected in a single run can range between 1 and 1,000
High-speed imaging
The scanning speed is typically 100-1,000 cells/second, allowing for high-content screening
High-quality imaging
Computer vision can recognize both unlabeled and fluorescent cells. You can sort cells that have been tagged with fluorescent probes or markers.
Highly modular
Numerous choices for a more personalized experience and a better fit
Software included
For all instruments, user-friendly software with an easy interface is offered, as well as free software upgrades.
Modular options:
- Practically any inverted microscope is possible. The top picks are Zeiss, Nikon, or Olympus
- Camera: Andor, PCO, Flir, Hamamatsu, and more
- Motorized stage: Prior and Märzhäuser stages, depending on the sample size and scanning speed
- Light source: Prior Lumen 200s for standard use, and Lumencor Spectra is recommended
- Objective lens: Standard equipment includes a 10× lens. However, higher magnifications are also available
- Objective changer (nosepiece) and motorized filter turret
- Sample Holders: Microscope slides, chamber slides, standard multiwell plates (96-well plate), and 35 mm Petri dish
- Container for Single Cell Deposition: PCR tubes/strips, PCR plates, multiwell plates.
