With the highest level of automation available on any cell sorter, the MA900 uses sensors, software, and engineering know-how across the workflow from startup to aseptic cleaning, QC, and sort setup. Intelligent automation dramatically simplifies operation and streamlines troubleshooting. Initiation Upon startup, the software initiates connection between all subsystems and runs diagnostics that ensure that everything is working properly. Once the subsystems are verified, the software displays status and a green ready message on the instrument’s LCD monitor. Startup automation ensures...

Automated Chip Loading and Positioning Automated Optical Axis Adjustment Automated Droplet Calibration System setup begins with a one-touch installation to load the microfluidic flow cell chip. A setup software wizard guides you through the process of loading a sorting chip, selecting lasers, and inserting the optical filters required. Actuators ensure precise positioning of the chip inside the chip loader. The microfluidic sorting chip uses patented CoreFinder™ technology to automate and streamline key steps in the workflow including chip alignment and accurate calculation of the laser...

The angle and the position of the side streams are calculated and adjusted during setup for tube and plate sorting. This ensures that the sort stream is centered in the collection tube automatically. A dedicated laser and camera perform real-time analysis of droplet images using AutoSetup beads. Patented technologies calculate drop delay to ensure cells are sorted to desired purity and yield. Automated Quality Control Using QC beads, the rCV and linearity are measured and can be displayed in Levey-Jennings plots. This information helps administrators accurately assess optical performance...

The fluidics cart houses autoclavable sheath, deionized water, and waste tanks as well as tanks containing bleach and ethanol. Weighted sensors on the fluidics cart allow a real-time measurement of the fluid levels, which is displayed in the software. Software guides the operation of default and custom fluidic system cleaning. Default cycles include cleaning with bleach or ethanol. Software guides you through each step of the selected cleaning cycle. Fluid is pumped from three cleaning tanks via a cleaning chip. The software also supports user-defined protocols for setting the time for...

Experiment Settings Experiments can be created by selecting a new template, a recent experiment, or a shared template (public) from the experiment window. If a new template is selected, the software guides you through choosing experiment settings such as sample groups, tubes, and pulse parameters for data acquisition. Once a template is selected or created, compensation data can be acquired easily by using the software based compensation wizard. Alternatively, uncompensated populations can be adjusted using the drag and drop feature in the software. During acquisition, data is displayed on...

Sorting Once events are gated on plots, target cells can be sorted for further analysis. Sort mode, sort gates, and sort devices can be assigned using a simple dialog box. A choice of eight default and five custom sort modes is available to achieve the desired purity and yield of the sorted popu-lation. Sort devices supported include 2-way and 4-way tubes as well as 6-, 12-, 24-, 48-, 96-, and 384-well plates.

Precision engineering for accurate cell deposition and easy to use index sorting software Sort Deposition System The Sort Deposition System is an optional hardware feature that facilitates highthroughput sorting and precise deposition of cells into 6-, 12-, 24-, 48-, 96-, and 384well plates or PCR plates. Several features on the MA900 enable deposition of single cells at a high efficiency. These include the ability to precisely adjust the position of a plate, assign the center of the drop relative to the target cell position, and utilize custom angled plate holders for multiwell PCR and...

Index Sorting Software Index sorting software records the X and Y coordinates of each event sorted into a multiwell device. This very precise and easy to use software brings powerful capabilities to research, enabling you to track the scatter and fluorescence intensity of individual cells sorted in each well. After the sort, the index file can be exported in CSV format or analyzed on the cell sorter. The Well Select feature lets you choose a well and display event(s) sorted in that well on bivariate plots and histograms. The Gate Select feature lets you display the location of events on a...
