20130330708 | SORTER AND SORTING METHOD FOR SEPARATING CELLS AND PARTICLES - A sorter for separating cells and particles comprises a Raman spectrum collection and analysis system, a microfluidic system and a cell/particle sorting system. The microfluidic system is connected with the Raman spectrum collection and analysis system, the Raman spectrum collection and analysis system is connected with the cell/particle sorting system, and the cell/particle sorting system is connected with the microfluidic system. Also disclosed is a sorting method for separating cells and particles. The sorter can effectively identify and sort cells, nano-materials, particles and cell inclusions with a size from nanometers to micrometers, and as compared with methods such as fluorescence or radioisotope labelling, etc., it can provide a greater abundance of characteristic information about cells or particles in the same amount of time. | 12-12-2013 |
