MMI CellEctor

Capillary based Cell-Sorting:
The MMI CellEctor is an integrated instrumentation solution for the fully manual or automated recognition, aspiration and deposition of single cells in suspension onto a wide range of cell culture or molecular biology device.

MMI CellEctor 3D Robot
• 3 Axis fully motorized and software controlled
• Easy swivel device to allow full access to the stage
• Easily adjustable capillary position (both along and around its axis)
• Patented capillary protection

High Precision MMI CellPump
Motorized and software controlled high precision pump to acquire and deposit cells or particles in defined volumes consisting of:
• MMI CellPump with 2 nanoliter resolution
• Pump filling and maintenance accessories
• Integrated protection from mechanical damage
• Seamless switching between manual and motorized mode
• Patented design for easy fill and flush

MMI CellEctor software functions
• Fully automated or manual acquisition and deposition of cells
• Choice of three automation levels including full automation with scanning of the sample and cell recognition
• Complex movement modes of the capillary (skipping of the sample container wall, user-defined immersion and deceleration distance, deposition at vertical walls)
• User-defined spacing between the capillary tip and the slide with a dynamic correction to compensate the slide tilt
• Automated capillary re-focusing options: on the microscope slide or on the capillary tip
• user-defined pump parameter sets for different capillary diameters
• Automated dispatching of cells onto either grids or any other device (e.g. a PCR tube, cell culture vessel)
• Automated inspection of loaded grids (spot by spot) with cells recognition and statistics report
• Automated reduction of excitation times under fluorescence settings
