Simplified user interface, great for ease of use.
Application Area:Sorting yeast libraries
"Very user friendly software interface which simplifies the collection of data and sorting of cells for novice users. For robust sorting of tricky samples, more advanced training or user knowledge is needed. Makes single cell sorting accessible to smaller groups and companies that do not have a dedicated facility or staff to maintain instrumentation."

Sony Sorter 800, Simple to use for antibody V-gene discovery via single cell sorting.
Application Area:Sorting single B cells for antibody gene discovery
"For a first time user of FACS equipment, the Sony Sorter 800 has been a joy to use. It is simple and intuitive to set up and use, and seems to have a lot less complications from what I hear in comparison to BD equipment. The software is also easy to use, especially in regards to doing the compensation. The only limitation is having six channels to work with, but they do have a newer version with 12 channels that we are now interested in using."

Great machine and very easy to use.
Application Area:Analyze the T cell population
"Sony cell sorter/analyzer is very good. We use it every day in our lab. It also includes a cell sorter if we want to sort cells. We were not sure at the beginning how it's going to work for us as Sony is really not a biotech company but I guess since they had the lasers they decided to make this instrument which is very efficient. It's very easy to use and we do the maintenance usually by ourselves."

The SH800 is flexible and can support a variety of applications for individual and core labs. For applications in which cross-contamination is a concern, optional e-beam sterilized consumables can be used to replace the sample line and sorting chip.
The optical design offers up to four collinear excitation lasers (488 nm, 405nm, 561nm and 638nm) and six fluorescence detectors. The six free-form PMTs enable detection of fluorescence signals from any laser based on filter selection.
An optional class A2 Level II biosafety cabinet provides protection for personnel and products. The biosafety cabinet was custom designed for the SH800 and tested by The Baker Company to meet international standards.
SH800 Cell Sorter Highlights
- Provides the highest level of automation available in any cell sorter, allowing researcher set-up, alignment, calibration and monitoring with a push of a button.
- A novel microfluidic sorting chip is available in three sizes including 70 μm, 100 μm, and 130 μm to permit sorting of a wide range of cell sizes which simplifies sorting.
- An optional custom biosafety cabinet meets industry standards for personnel and product protection.
The SH800 is for non-clinical research use only and is a Class 1 laser product.
