Methoden & Expertise zur Forschungsinfrastruktur
The FACSMelody system supports a wide range of applications, including immunophenotyping, single-cell sorting, and the preparation of samples for downstream analyses such as cell culture or single-cell sequencing.
A major advantage of the system is its high degree of automation combined with intuitive software, which streamlines setup, operation, and data acquisition. This user-friendly design allows even less experienced users to perform advanced cell sorting while maintaining high sensitivity, purity, and reproducibility.
