Cell analysis solutions developer Cytek Biosciences (Fremont, CA) has introduced its Aurora CS high-dimensional benchtop cell sorter. Built on the same Full Spectrum Profiling (FSP) technology comprising the company’s Aurora cell analysis system first launched in 2017, the Aurora CS delivers high-resolution capabilities at the single cell level to resolve and sort challenging cell populations, regardless of assay complexity or autofluorescence level. The system enables researchers to isolate live cells or other particles in microtiter plates or tubes for downstream studies, such as single-cell RNA sequencing, proteomics, and cell biology.
The FSP technology enables the use of many different fluorophores (40 colors demonstrated) on both the Aurora system and the Aurora CS to define a large array of cellular subpopulations in a single tube, enabling a deeper understanding of complete biological systems. With the company’s SpectroFlo CS software, up to six-way sorting, customizable sort modes, automated drop delay, and sort stream monitoring are achievable, ultimately leading to shorter setup times to meet various application needs.
