New COPAS™ Flow Cytometer from Union Biometrica
16 Aug 2011Union Biometrica has introduced the NEW COPAS™ HTS Option for Gentle Sorting of large libraries of 10-1,500μ Particles. COPAS large particle flow cytometers can analyze and sort objects that are too large or too fragile for traditional flow cytometers.
Lower operating pressures and soft-touch air-jet diverter technology means delicate samples are dispensed intact and viable.
The new HTS Option package is designed for High Throughput Screening applications involving a large number of objects sorted into microtiter output plates.
This option can be added to any new COPAS or BioSorter® model and includes liquid level sensors, leak and clog detectors as well as automatic sample pressure control for walk-away operation. The system uses status lights to notify an operator when reservoirs need refilling or other attention is required. A software option can also “slave” the system to a robotic plate handler.

BioSorter® Large Particle Flow Cytometer
Union Biometrica, Inc.The BioSorter is a large particle flow cytometer designed to analyze, sort and dispense biological materials and other objects ranging in size from 10 to 1500 microns in diameter. The system is designed to handle objects which are too large or too fragile for traditional flow cytometers. Examples include small multicellular model organisms, delicate large cells / cell clusters, small seeds and beads used as microcarriers or for combinatorial libraries.The BioSorter can be configured to accommodate the full 10 to 1500 micron range in four steps, each with a specially engineered Fluidics and Optics Core Assembly optimized for a particular size range. An operator can easily switch between these different modules to maximize sensitivity and speed for any given sample type.
COPAS™ Large Particle Flow Cytometers
Union Biometrica, Inc.COPAS instruments provide flow cytometry for objects that are too large for traditional cytometers and offer an alternative to manual sorting (under a microscope). These systems sort and dispense objects based on size and fluorescent parameters. Automating this process offers increased speed, sensitivity, quantification, and repeatability of experiments.
