Easy to maintain and super easy to use sorter
Application Area: Flow cytometry
"Excellent and very easy to use sorter. Lower capabilities than more complex systems, can still be personalized with different laser and detector layouts. While the Melody is not ultra-reliable in day to day use, it can be used with very good results for a number of sorting applications even by inexperienced users. Recommended."

Great instrument. I am happy with the purchase. It is speeding up my research!
Application Area:Flow cytometry analysis and cell sorting
"The instrument is so easy to use given that sorting is a very involved task. It is designed to be quite automated with minimum user interference. The instrument is easy to run and to maintain and if there is any issue the technicians are there to help. They provide a great amount of help by phone and remotely so you do not wait for a visit. The price is reasonable given that cell sorting is quite expensive in any shared facility."

Great machine.
Application Area:Isolate lymphocyte population
"The instrument is easy to start, set up and is very stable. We had a few issues to start with due to the hood not being sturdy enough, but now it is perfect."

Reproducible results working with different cell lines.
Application Area:Cell sorting
"The instrument is compact and needs relatively small space. We got reproducible results working with different cell lines. It is relatively affordable to be purchased by small labs ."

The instrument provides simplicity and robustness that can change science.
Application Area:Cell sorting
"The software and automated technology greatly reduce manual steps and simplifies the workflow whilst reducing variation. It is sensitive for collecting rare cells and that can make all the difference. No matter how praiseworthy downstream technologies are, the cell source for experiments is key: garbage in-garbage out. What is key is that the FACSMelody not only provides purity, but also good recovery, with yields allowing previously hard to attain results."
