Flow-Cytometry Equipment
FACS Melody
Cell sorters allow you identify and separate out either populations of cells or individual cells of interest in a sterile manner to sue in downstream applications. The FACS Melody is an easy to use cell sorter that can be run by facility staff or by trained users.
