DEVELOPMENT OF A CELL SORTER

目前正在研制一种仪器， 生长培养基中，并将它们放置在托盘（或一些其它托盘）的威尔斯孔中。 容器）用于测试或单克隆生长。 传统移液 稀释的细胞悬浮液是缓慢和劳动密集型的，并且需要进一步的 处理以选择包含单个细胞的样品。 近日一 商业文书已经成为可用（菜ell），连接到一个 显微镜，基本上由机器人移液系统组成。 这 仪器具有一定的操作优势，但需要视觉细胞 选择手动控制。 正在拟订的文书将 联合收割机将自动细胞选择与计算机控制的细胞放置相结合。

An instrument is being developed for selecting individual cells from growth medium and placing them in wells in a tray (or some other container) for testing or monoclonal growth. Traditional pipetting of a diluted cell suspension is slow and labor-intensive, and requires further processing to select the samples containing a single cell. Recently, a commercial instrument has become available (Quixell) that attaches to a microscope, and consists essentially of a robotic pipetting system. This instrument has certain manipulative advantages, but requires visual cell selection with manual control. The instrument under development would combine automatic cell selection with computer-controlled cell placement.
