Cell sorting MBC

Cell sorting at the MBC

As well as multi-colour immune cell sorting,  MBC staff specialise in niche tissues: stem cells, neural and other solid organs, subcellular particles and cell lines. We sort a lot of fluorescent proteins with applications such as: barcoding, YFP/ GFP separation and FRET.

Excellent recovery rates for single-cell sorting experiments for applications such as single-cell RNAseq.
