COMPUTER-CONTROLLED MULTIPARAMETER ANALYSIS AND SORTING OF CELLS AND PARTICLES

Abstract

A new high speed instrument for the multiparameter analysis and separation of cells and subcellular particles under computer control has been constructed. It incorporates several new features, the combination of which is believed to make the system uniquely capable of attacking a wide variety of biologic questions. In this paper we present the biologic objectives as well as the salient new features of the instrument.
