A micro fluorescent activated cell sorter for astrobiology applications
2009
Instruments and Methods for Astrobiology and Planetary Missions XII
A micro-scale Fluorescent Activated Cell Sorter (µ&ACS) for astrobiology applications is under development. This device is designed to have a footprint of 7 cm x 7 cm x 4 cm and allow live-dead counts and sorting of cells that have fluorescent characteristics from staining. The µFACS system takes advantage of microfludics to create a cell sorter that can fit in the palm of the hand. A micron-scale channel allows cells to pass by a blue diode which causes emission of marker-expressed cells which
