particle sorting

The CytoSense may be upgraded with sorter device, consisting of a physical add-on module with a piezo driven fluid switch and a pressure control valve , filter housing and accessories to catch target particles on a small polycarbonate filter, and an electronics unit with adjustable delay. This implies that the CytoSense will become a bigger benchtop device for interactive operation. Owing to the very large flow channel size of CytoSense instrument it is impossible to use droplet sorting - instead a fluid switch sorting is required with sort rates of max. ca 100 particles per second.
