Features
- Integrated workflow: generation → analysis → sorting with compatible chips, reagent kits, and software.
- Broad assay compatibility: magnetic-bead and reporter-cell assays, nucleic-acid/protein fluorescence probes, FRET, and more.
- High-throughput single-cell sequencing: capture up to ~10⁵ cells per run for deeper maps and rare-subset discovery.
- Precise, clean sorting: disposable closed sorting chip minimizes maintenance/contamination; logic-gated, co-localized fluorescence sorting with ≥95% accuracy.
- Instrumentation options: temperature control, 384-well printing, UV sterilization, absorbance detection available as accessories.
