Our new cell sorter is now fully installed and ready to use.

It is an easy-to-use instrument, equipped with 4 excitation lasers and it can measure up to 14 parameters. It provides:

4-way sorting, bulk and single cell sorting,

1,5mL Eppies, 5mL FACS tubes, 15mL Falcon tubes, 30ml tubes, 96 well plates, 384 well plates,

index sorting, 70µm, 100µm, 130µm sorting chips and is is located in an safety cabinet within our S1 lab. (this means you can sort patient material)

You can request training on operator-free self-sorting from now on. And the instrument will be available around the clock.

A comprehensive overview over all new devices of the Flow Cytometry Core Facility.

In 2018 the Flow Cytometry Core Facility was able to acquire five new instruments.

A FACSAria Fusion cell sorter, a second LSRFortessa cell analyzer and an ImageStream  image cytometer were granted by the DFG through a large device application. (“Forschungsgroßgeräte” nach Art.91b GG)

Special thanks goes to the excellence cluster “ImmunoSensation”and to the SFB TR57 .  A FACSMelody cell sorter and a Attune NXT flow cytometer could be purchased by their help. Furthermore, we could upgrade the Image Stream shortly after it was delivered, since we found out, that one of the planned experiments would require up to 20 hours of measurement time. This is definitely a job for an autosampler.
