Free-Form PMT Layout Setup on the MA900 Cell Sorter

Sony Biotechnology
15 Mar 2019

Multi-user laboratories sort a variety of cells, which demands flexibility in a sorter’s optical design. Previously, the only approach to meet this demand was to purchase a cell sorter preconfigured with multiple parameters across many lasers. Though many fluorescence channels in such a flow cytometer might not be used simultaneously, labs could change their panel design without having to reconfigure or upgrade their instrument for each application. The MA900 is the first cell sorter to offer an affordable option to labs that need flexible detection capability.

Flow Cytometry / Cell CountingFlow cytometers are used to count, sort and examine multiple characteristics of cells. Other cell analysis equipment includes image cytometers, cell counters, fluorescence-activated cell sorters (FACS), magnetic-activated cell sorters (MACS), and a range of flow cytometry assay kits. Flow cytometers can reveal information on cell viability, cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle progression, as well as identify cell populations and intracellular or cell-surface molecules. Additionally, some flow cytometers, known as FACS, have an additional sorting function after analysis. Cell counters and image cytometers count live and dead cell populations and can also conduct cell proliferation assays. Find the best flow cytometers, cell counters and cell sorters in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.FluorescenceThe emission of fluorescence occurs when a photon of energy is supplied to a fluorescent chemical compound by an external source, causing it to become excited. Fluorescence can be detected and measured for different purposes using microplate readers, fluorescence microscopes, fluorescence scanners, and flow cytometers.Cell SortingCell sorting isolates specific cell populations based on physical or molecular characteristics, essential in immunology, cancer research, and regenerative medicine. Techniques like flow cytometry improve accuracy and speed. Compare cell sorting instruments and solutions in our product directory.Cell CultureCell culture involves growing cells under controlled conditions, typically outside of their natural environment, to study cellular behavior, drug response, and disease models. Cell culture is crucial in biotechnology and biomedical research.
