F10 - FACS Aria III

System Description

The FACS Aria III is a 4 laser sorter with 16 fluorescence detectors controlled by FACSDiva software and operated exclusively by BioOptics staff members. It allows bulk sorts of up to 4 populations simultaneously as well as single cell sorting. It is therefore suited for sorting onto slides and into multi-well plates. Temperature control for sample input and sort output (4oC to room temperature) is possible. The nozzle sizes 70μm - 85μm - 100μm - 130μm  are availabe.

 

Fluorochromes in bold letters are listed in the configurations of the flow cytometer.
