Microfluidic Cartridge Technology

The WOLF G2 Cell Sorter uses patented, microfluidic-based sorting with robust laser-excitation and sensitive PMT detectors to isolate mammalian cells, microbes, plant cells and more. A gentle and piezoelectric actuator directs cells into collection channels and allows analysis and sorting in a disposable format. This eliminates sample-to-sample contamination and biohazard exposure or cleanup. This technology allows the WOLF G2 to sort up to 200 cells per second with high accuracy and effective recovery. Deposit 1 to 100 cells per well in a 96-well or 384-well plate using a single-cell sorting cartridge and integrated Single-Cell Dispenser.

  • Unique to NanoCellect are our disposable cartridges that allow for bulk sorting or single-cell sorting.
  • The sorting cartridges use a piezoacoustic actuator that gently directs cells into collection channels; an embedded cell sorting verification system gives instant feedback of sorting accuracy.
  • Sort two selected cell populations with bulk sorting while the remainder of cells collects in a third channel.
  • Deposit 1 to 100 cells per well in a 96- or 384 well plate using a single-cell sorting cartridge and integrated Single-Cell Dispenser.

Accessories and Software


CS1 Chiller-Stirrer

Applications with temperature sensitive samples, such as Stem cells or Neuronal cells can be challenging to sort. Such applications would benefit from modules such as the CS1 Chiller-Stirrer by keeping both sheath fluid and sample at the desired temperature during the sorting process.


WOLFViewer Software

The WOLFViewer software has an intuitive workflow menu that walks users through their experimental process, and is designed for both novice and expert users. New users can be performing their first sorts in about 20 minutes and can be on their own on day one.


Plate sorting specifications
System power up: 3 minutes
System setup and calibration: 20 minutes
System shutdown: 3 minutes
Additional features: Auto-alignment, intuitive compensation, advanced coloring and gating options, FSC files compatible with FlowJo

How Does Flow Cytometry Work?

Flow Cytometry is a technique used to detect and measure the physical and chemical characteristics of a population of cells or particles. In this process, a sample containing cells or particles is suspended in a fluid and injected into the flow cytometer instrument.

Flow Cytometry Gating: Everything You Need to Know

Flow cytometry via a flow cytometry machine provides a great deal of power for hypothesis testing, it also generates a vast amount of data, which is typically analyzed manually through a process called “gating”.

How to Identify and Remove Doublets in Flow Cytometry

A doublet is when two or more cells stick together and are measured at the same time by the flow cytometer. This is different than an “abort”, which is when a cell enters the processing window while an earlier arriving cell is being analyzed.
