A
cell sorter is a device that is used to separate different types of cells or particles from a mixture and arrange them into groups. It works by analyzing the characteristics of the cells or particles and sorting them based on these characteristics. This allows researchers to study specific types of cells or extract desired cells for further analysis or medical purposes.

Fluorescence -
activated cell sorters added the ability to separate cells into containers based on which molecular markers they carry.
Cell biologists no longer rely only on pictures from microscopes — pixels and pulses
from cell sorters and other devices now enhance their research.
All live cell sorting and single cell sorting was performed on purified PBMCs using either a FACSVantage or
ARIAII cell sorter system.
These include 5 high
performance cell sorters that are customized for isolating cells and chromosomes at high speed and 4 high throughput cell analysers that maximize the speed of acquisition of specimens from microtiter well plates (96 well plate, 384 well plate).
In this presentation, we will discuss how the Illumina Bio-Rad Single - Cell Sequencing Solution combined with the Bio-Rad
S3e Cell Sorter enhances single - cell studies and provides researchers with a robust, scalable, and user - friendly workflow that enables transcriptome profiling of hundreds to tens of thousands of single cells in a single experiment.
It is anticipated that the award will be used to purchase a a new FACSAria
III cell sorter, a Leica TCS SP8 multiphoton microscope, and a FAST Airyscan module to increase the utility of their current confocal microscope.
BD Biosciences develops and manufactures tools for life science researchers, including fluorescence
activated cell sorters and analyzers and cell imaging systems as well as associated antibodies and reagents.
«We're sorting individual aggregates full of cells that are active in a simulated environment and with
the cell sorter we can grab active cells to study them.
1 — 3 × 108 cells were spun down and resolved in 3 — 10 ml PBS (density of the cells was adjusted to the flow rate of
the cell sorter).
Mouse MMTV - Wnt1 breast tumors were digested and CD45 - Thy1 + CD24 + murine breast cancer cells were isolated using
a cell sorter as described previously (Cho et al., 2008).
