Cartridge based fluidics
NanoCellect’s innovative approach to cell sorting encompasses both bulk and single-cell sorting through its unique and exclusive microfluidic cartridges. The microfluidic sorting cartridges operate at less than 2 psi to enable gentle sorting that preserves cellular viability and RNA integrity, as well as eliminate aerosol generation. With a 100% disposable fluidic pathway, these cartridges are particularly advantageous for laboratories handling numerous samples, mitigating concerns related to cross-contamination and biohazard cleanup. The combination of zero aerosol generation and the sterile microfluidic sorting cartridges provides an end-to-end fluidics path, that delivers one of the safest sorting experiences available. Additionally, these cartridges offer remarkable flexibility, allowing users to sort cells using their preferred buffers and media while consuming only approximately 50 mL of sheath fluid per day. Experience the power of single-cell dispensing, cell line engineering, and single-cell isolation with NanoCellect’s cutting-edge microfluidic sorting cartridges.

Product Specs Table Optics
The WOLF G2 uses laser-based flow cytometry technology for detecting and sorting a variety of cell types, including mammalian, plant, fungal, and bacterial cells. The WOLF G2 cell sorter utilizes typical Forward- (FSC) and Back- (BSC) scatter detectors—as well as 3 different laser configurations to broaden its capabilities. In combination with the N1 single cell dispenser, scientists can complete both bulk and single-cell sorting. A simple cytometer, with powerful impact, allows researchers to sort their own cells on their own bench.

Software
- WOLFViewer software walks users though a simple workflow by offering step-by-step wizards to make the sorting process as straightforward as possible. As a result, the software uses an intuitive workflow allowing users to quickly complete setup.
- After setup, WOLFViewer makes analyzing and creating gates simple—while still providing full-featured flow cytometry tools.
- Key tools like automatic compensation and index sorting, are streamlined and included.
- When sorting is complete, shutdown and cleanup is literally less than a minute, allowing users to rapidly conclude their work.
- Researchers have the option of 2-way sorts for bulk sorting and 1-way sorts for single-cell dispensing through the WOLFViewer software.
